Subject: Frau Roebling neglected

You neglect to discuss Mrs. Roebling in this article, when it is fairly well known that she actually directed the project during Herr Roebling's final illness.

Didn't intentionally neglect Frau Roebling. For one thing Ezine limits us to 14000 characters so I couldn't include all the details. Mrs. Roebling did indeed manage the project from her home when the senior Roebling was ill. The remarkable thing about this accomplishment was that she had no practical experience, other than her association with her husband, with managing construction projects previous to this one. She was the "bridge" (pardon the pun) between her husband and her son and should indeed share in glory.
