A View through the Fog by Bob McGee\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

“<\/em>Heading southbound through the Robin Williams Tunnel, formerly the Waldo Tunnel, on the way to the Golden Gate Bridge humbles the soul nearly any morning as the strikingly beautiful San Francisco skyline greets workers and visitors alike. A privileged encounter with the sun and sea! On the left, the radiating orb rising over the East Bay Hills quietly lays its rays upon Alcatraz Island. On the right, the picturesque Marin Headlands quietly yield to the endless expanse of the Pacific Ocean. Scattered clouds in the sky above cast their silhouettes upon the towers of the Bridge.<\/p>\n

On a foggy day, the Bridge develops its own distinct environment: a white mist creeps along the Bridge, slowly wrapping its arms around everyone and everything that moves, leading all into a shifting fog bank. This thick white wall, accompanied by the eerie call of the Bridge foghorns, gives the illusion that this mass of concrete and steel is perhaps a living entity.” – excerpt from A View from the Fog<\/em><\/p>\n

A View through the Fog<\/em> 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:<\/p>\n
