Bridge Hunt chronicles a young man's unforgettable quest to discover the 42 revolutionary bridges designed by Robert Maillart, a pioneering Swiss engineer and architectural luminary, between 1899 to 1940. Many of these graceful structures still hide along remote back roads and alpine valleys, while a few iconic landmarks endure in Bern, Geneva, and Zurich. Maillart's breathtaking Salginatobel Bridge was recently designated as a Swiss heritage site for its national significance. It has also been named an International Historic Civil Engineering Landmark by the American Society of Civil Engineers. This visually rich travelogue presents the only complete published collection of photos and descriptions of all Maillart's extant European bridges, capturing his unique engineering artistry. It will appeal to civil engineers, architects, and students, as well as travellers, adventure-seekers and anyone fascinated by treasures that unite rather than divide our world. More than a precious record of a unique chapter in infrastructure history, the book is at heart a human story. Through one young man's eyes, we rediscover Maillart's timeless bridges, which embody the soaring of imagination transformed into structures that bring people together.
