The definitive story of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, one of the world's most amazing engineering feats - a structure that has become a national icon.
The inside story of a national icon.
'I said to Mum that the sky-workers must have really good heads for heights, but she said, "Either that, or they have a family to feed and will do anything for a job that pays."' It is 1932 and Sydney has hit hard times but the construction of a bridge that will reach across the harbour is setting spirits soaring. Both Alice and Billy tell the story of building the spectacular Harbour Bridge which will link the north shore to the working class suburbs of the south and unify a separated city.
The bridge first opened in March 1932, and was built during the Great Depression by over 2,500 workers. Since then, it has become a quintessential Australian landmark and together with the Sydney Opera House is recognised across the world as a must see destination for tourists and visitors
On 19 March 1932, after nine years planning and building, more than a million Australians crossed the newly opened Sydney Harbour Bridge, the largest arch bridge in the world. This revised edition of Peter Spearitts biography of the Bridge celebrates the 80th anniversary of the Sydney Harbour Bridge in March 2012. It tells the extraordinary story of the Bridges design and construction, the drama of its official opening, and the way it has taken a central place in Sydneys celebrations and become a much-loved symbol of the city.
