A Full and Complete Description With Dimensions and Details of Construction

Written by E.F. Farrington, edited by Don Heinrich Tolzmann [Ohio] with a foreword by Paul A. Tenkotte [Kentucky]

E.F. Farrington (1820-1898) served as master carpenter for the building of the John A. Roebling Suspension Bridge on the Ohio River, and published a little-known description of it in 1867. His report provides the fascinating details on the construction of the bridge, covering a wide variety of details, including the anchorages, towers, and cables. This new edition of his work contains a foreword by Paul A. Tenkotte, and an introduction to the life and work of Farrington by Don Heinrich Tolzmann. Supplements have also been added to place Farrington's work in historical context. 85 pages
