Oliver, Editor "The Bering Strait Project: Symposium" is a world-exclusive overview of proposals for an inter-continental crossing between North America and the Asia-Europe landmass. The scheme for a Bering Strait crossing was first proposed in the mid-19th Century, and seriously considered in 1904 and again 1942. Since the end of the Cold War, the project has attracted renewed interest. In the 21st Century, an East-West link-up on the scale envisaged would be among the greatest projects in history, with profound implications for the global economy.
