Description: Spanning the Brisbane River in bold cantilevered steel, the Story Bridge stands as one of Queensland's most iconic feats of engineering. This richly detailed history traces the bridge from John Bradfield's ambitious vision through its Depression-era construction, wartime significance, and evolution into a beloved modern landmark. Blending engineering insight with human stories, the book explores the workers, designers, and everyday Brisbanites whose lives have been shaped by this remarkable structure. A compelling tribute to a piece of living infrastructure that continues to define a city's skyline and spirit.
