I drive the Golden Gate Bridge frequently, but after reading A VIEW THROUGH THE FOG, I will never look at the bridge the same way. There is so much more to the bridge than meets the eye. The stories about jumpers off the bridge was rather disturbing at times, but i really enjoyed the battles between the author and Smokey. Somber, funny, and entertaining. Its a real good book.

A Goodreads Review of A View through the Fog by Bob McGee - by Davis

  Bob McGee's book,  A View through the Fog , has received a number of reviews of Goodreads -- all outstanding ones. We will be sharing these over the next few weeks. If you want to get them all at once, here you go:  A View through the Fog by Bob McGee | Goodreads . Tamara Davis, awarding five stars, says,  A View Through the Fog  thoughtfully represents a period of time for the Golden Gate Bridge and its workers there then. The memoir reminds readers that every experience (and stage of something) is temporary: "While Bridge painters will continue to come and go, they will never do it like we did" (126).

I learned a lot about the construction, components, and upkeep of the bridge, plus what is involved in getting a coveted painting job. The suicide details are startling, but the author bravely broaches the topic and handles it with com...

A Goodreads Review of A View through the Fog by McGee - by Wattley

Bob McGee's book,  A View through the Fog , has received a number of reviews of Goodreads -- all outstanding ones. We will be sharing these over the next few weeks. If you want to get them all at once, here you go:  A View through the Fog by Bob McGee | Goodreads . Donna Wattley, awarding five stars, says,  This book was an eye opener. It goes behind the scenes to show what it’s like being a painter on the Golden Gate Bridge. Often comical, sometimes sobering, at times sad, this book is filled with interesting anecdotes that reveal the work culture of the painters, including their many high jinks. The author gives enough detail about the Bridge so you can picture its features, but without being so technical that the book drags, then kindly adds a glossary and bridge statistics at the end. All in all, an enjoyable read. If I can read a book for leisure and learn something from it, that’s my idea of a win. AWARDS Pinnacle Book Achievement Award Literary Titan gold award Eri...
