Presenting a beautiful coffee-table book from The Oregonian/OregonLive on the bridges of Oregon. They move us — literally and figuratively. They connect us. They inspire us. They wow us. They sometimes even define us.

This is not just a history book. It’s a book about who we are and how we’ve transformed — featuring gorgeous color imagery shot by Oregonian/OregonLive staff photographers along with vintage black and white photography tracing the history of our iconic landmarks.

It’s a book about architecture and style and about our appreciation of technology, innovation and workmanship. The book features chapters of 18 of your favorite bridges. Plus scores of photographs of other bridges around the state.
