Customer Review: decent, but not what i ordered
i got the mirror and it was everything i was hoping it would be; except it wasn’t what i ordered. what i received was a different type of mirror, and while it does its job as a panoramic mirror, it is still not what i ordered. either way, i love the panoramic mirrors, they work a lot better than standard factory rear-view mirrors.
Customer Review: Every Car should have this
I think cars should have this installed already. Your blind spots disapear.

The Bridges Of New Jersey: Portraits Of Garden State Crossings
“Steven Richman’s enthusiasm for New Jersey bridges is contagious. He helps us come to see the spans that he celebrates as structural gems and cultural treasures.”—Henry Petroski, author of Engineers of Dreams: Great Bridge Builders and the Spanning of America
New Jersey is sandwiched between the Hudson and Delaware Rivers, with the Raritan, Passaic, and Navesink cutting swaths across it. In spite of the state’s relatively small size, over six thousand bridges span its varied landscape. They traverse rivers, streams, railroads, and roadways. Several dozen bridges cut across the Delaware River alone, carrying pedestrian, vehicular, and railroad traffic. Three connect the state to Staten Island. Some are steeped in history, dating back to the colonial era and the Revolutionary War. Others are recognized worldwide for their size or significance in the annals of engineering.
In The Bridges of New Jersey, Steven M. Richman provides a rare photographic and poetic journey across sixty of the state’s bridges, ranging from impressive suspension spans such as the Ben Franklin and George Washington Bridges, to the small wrought-iron and stone bridges that are cherished by local citizens. The book provides a rich diversity of stories that place the bridges in the context of New Jersey history and culture. Richman also explores the contribution New Jersey bridges have made to engineering—some of the most prominent engineers of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries either lived or established businesses in the Garden State or designed its bridges.
Lavishly illustrated with over seventy photographs, this book is much more than a documentary survey. It is a visual portrait that beautifully captures the metaphoric significance and aesthetic pleasures of New Jersey’s bridges, and indeed all bridges. Perhaps more than any other structure built by humans, bridges typify progress and they give us a sense of connectedness. The Bridges of New Jersey provides a compelling visual demonstration of these symbolic functions, as well as their practical purposes and engineering accomplishments.
Customer Review: If you are into Bridges you’ll love this
Bought this for a dear friend. He is an engineer and works around bridges all of the time, and lives in New Jersey. when he opened the package he was very excited…like a kid in a candy store!
ARNHEM - THE BRIDGE (Battleground Europe Market Garden)
In the second of his two Battleground guides to the epic struggle put up by the British and Polish paratroopers at Arnhem, Frank Steer concentrates on the battle in the town itself and particularly for the vital bridge. Seized at a comparatively early stage, the bridge became the focus for prolonged and vicious fighting. Cut off from further reinforcement by the furious Germans, the small garrison, led by the redoubtable Colonel John Frost, waged an increasingly desperate struggle for survival against overwhelming odds, hoping against hope that 30 Corps would arrive in time. As is well known they did not. The fact that this battle was lost and the bold aims of Market Garden were not fully achieved in no way diminished the extent of the achievement of the Para’s. Indeed it has added to their glory.
