The Great Bridge Book Review

The Great Bridge: The Epic Story of the Building of the Brooklyn BridgeThe Great Bridge: The Epic Story of the Building of the Brooklyn Bridge by David McCullough

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Another great book by McCullough. What I thought, starting out, was going to be a book merely about "building the Brooklyn Bridge" turned out to give me the excitement of the times in the mid 1800's. David did a very good job at building the excitement and adventure of the times to the point I wish I was there to witness the great feat. The bridge indeed is an epic story and staple to our industrial future. 5 star well deserved.

he answer is Sac Hermes Birkin yes. French fashion house has confirmed the Brit model as the face of their Boy Chanel handbag collection. [Karl Lagerfeld] a crush with this unique, charismatic dude, who's both one and musician, during the photo shoot several months ago, Chanel told WWD. This previously unforeseen alliance finally became self-evident. Alice Dellal represents the most perfect incarnation off which is unique in regards to the Boy Chanel handbag collection, which strives [to be] not even close conformist notions of femininity.
Yep, Dellal is anything but conventional Sac Hermes Pas Cher. And even her trademark punk-rock uniform, the petite 24-year-old is actually a drummer while in the band Thrush Metal and will remain found larking for the streets based in london with Pixie Geldof. Shes far from blonde bombshell Blake Lively, whos the existing face of Chanels Mademoiselle range, but Lagerfeld is acknowledged for his eclectic taste, previously casting Lily Allen for the Cocoon bag range during the past year. Even greater, Alice's androgyny will work brilliantly with the 'Boy' collection Sac Hermes. How refreshing Sac Hermes Kelly.
