Publisher's Pride: Books on Bestseller Lists) - A View through the Fog (McGee)

  


Today's Publisher's Pride is A View through the Fog by Bob McGee, which reached #210 in coping with suicide guilt and #351 in civil and environmental engineering. (This book was in on the top 100 list nearly every month through January 2025 and often since.)

Book description:

A View through the Fog is compelling, poignant, and packed with both moving and hilarious anecdotes. All human life (and death) is here. With his own distinct voice, McGee opens the door on the dizzying world of the Golden Gate Bridge-the beauty of both nature and the bridge itself, the camaraderie and friction with colleagues, and the devastating tragedies of suicide jumpers. He brings an entire community to the page with a thought-provoking and richly detailed memoir that will resonate with many readers.

The motive for his writing this book is love of his subject. He paints this world he knows in a way that gives readers the feeling they are on the Bridge with him.

From review by Kevin Hines:

"Read one of the most well written books of the past decade, maybe longer! Much like the Golden Gate Bridge is an art deco masterpiece, Bob McGee's book "A View through the Fog" is itself an incredibly well written piece of art. His story is the Bridge's story."
