In 1968 the world's largest antique went to America. But how do you transport a 130 year old bridge 3,000 miles? And why did Robert P McCulloch, a multimillionaire oil baron and chainsaw manufacturing king, buy it? Why did he ship it to waterless patch of the Arizonan desert? Did he even get the right bridge? This title deals with these questions.
