Pittsburgh's Bridges takes a comprehensive look at the design, construction, and, sometimes, demolition of the bridges that shaped Pittsburgh, ranging from the covered bridges of yesterday to those that define the skyline today. Pittsburgh is the "City of Bridges," and what remarkable bridges they are! The area's challenging topography of deep ravines and mighty rivers - the Monongahela, Allegheny, and Ohio - set the stage for engineers, architects, and contractors to conquer the terrain with a variety of distinctive spans. Many were designed to be beautiful as well as functional. While other cities may have one signature bridge, Pittsburgh has such a wide variety that no single bridge can represent it.

Bob Regan mines the rich vein of Pittsburgh¿s history by continually finding a new lens through which to view the past. His previous two books¿The Steps of Pittsburgh and The Bridges of Pittsburgh¿were received with acclaim, drawing fans from the Pittsburgh diaspora around the world. The Names of Pittsburgh does the same as Regan explores the names of the men and women¿not to mention scientific paraphernalia, patents, astronomical terms, grape varietals, et al.¿from the region¿s history which dot the landscape. Each provides a segue into a broader discussion of some fascinating aspect of Pittsburgh¿s past.
