Golden Gate: The Life and Times of America’s Greatest Bridge | Calif. Historical Society

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Celebrate the release of Kevin Starr’s latest book, Golden Gate: The Life and Times of America’s Greatest Bridge, at the book launch party at the California Historical Society.

Golden Gate is a passionate telling of the history of the bridge, and the rich and peculiar history of the California experience. The Golden Gate is a grand public work, a symbol and a very real bridge, a magnet for both postcard photographs and suicides. In this compact but comprehensive narrative, Starr provides a lyrical account of the building and significance of one of America’s greatest landmarks, putting it in its place among classic works of art.
