Washington Roebling is well known as the man who supervised
construction of the Brooklyn Bridge. His path to overseeing that
monumental task began during the Civil War. In addition to his
brave, dramatic actions at Gettysburg, his Civil War service was
remarkable: artilleryman, bridge builder, scout, balloonist,
mapmaker, engineer, and staff officer. His story reveals much about
Gettysburg but also about Civil War intelligence and engineering
and the politics and infighting within the Army of the Potomac's
high command. Roebling's service-leadership, engineering,
decision-making, and managing personalities and politics-prepared
him well for overseeing the Brooklyn Bridge.
