BRIDGES OF WASHINGTON, D.C.

DC Bridge Book Tour Update!

​

The next event for my book, Bridges of Washington, D.C.: A History & Guide, will be on Thursday, October 8, from 7:00 to 9:00 pm at a Local Author Showcase sponsored by Wonderland Books in Bethesda, Maryland. The event will be held at The Cordell, at 4865 Cordell Avenue, just around the corner from Wonderland Books. This will be a multi-author event featuring 30 local authors. I will be there, signing and selling books, and engaging in one-on-one conversations with anyone interested in the history of (or future of!) the bridges in our Nation’s Capital. The link for information is https://www.wonderlandbooks.com/events.

​

I also still have more presentations scheduled through the Fall, including one in Potomac in October and Capitol Hill in November, and a full presentation at Oasis in January.

​

There is still find plenty of material online. My presentation titled Bridges of Washington, D.C.: The Virginia Side, for the Arlington Historical Society, was recorded and can be seen at https://arlhist.org/event/bridges-of-washington-dc-the-virginia-side/. My blog interview with DC historian Matthew Gilmore is posted at https://matthewbgilmore.wordpress.com/2026/03/09/bob-dover-interview-with-a-washington-dc-history-author-bridges-of-washington-d-c-a-history-guide/. My Rock, Paper, Write podcast associated with the Kensington Row local authors group is available at https://www.kensingtonrowauthors.com/podcast. As always, I continue to rotate some of my 8,000+ color photos of the DC bridges on www.bridgespotting.com, the Bridgespotting Facebook page, and the Bridges of Washington, DC Facebook group.

​

I look forward to seeing plenty of folks at the upcoming events!
