The Golden Gate Bridge is one of the longest bridges in the world. It is a suspension bridge. It is in San Fransisco, California over the San Fransisco Harbor. A fort stands underneath the bridge. One day a general, Ulysses S. Grant, passed into the harbor and they wanted to shoot the canons but the ten year old son of a colonel had packed them with charcoal. By the time they loaded them with gunpowder, the general was far away. That boy, Sydney Taylor, became the bridge's first trafficmaster. The author of the book got to stand on the unfinished bridge.
