Synopsis:
It was the bridge they said could never be built--the span too wide, the shore too unstable, the turbulent waters of the San Francisco Bay channel too wild to be tamed by the hand of man. But one engineer with a vision won the support of a brawling frontier community to create a masterpiece of design and function. The Golden Gate bridge..for 27-years the longest, highest suspension bridge on Earth...and still the number one mand-made tourist attraction in the United States.
