Summary
For those of you who will never know, since the gargantuan sprawling mills are gone, the testimonies of these men and women are recorded. This is their story. You would be afraid to walk, where they toiled day-to-day. They worked their whole lives at the risk of their health, either acutely or chronically, just to live and support their families.
Theirs was a world of extremes-from the North Mill, with its red-hot steel, iron and an oppressive layer of soot to the South Mill, with its clean swept floors and gleaming finished products- tinplate, pipe and I-beams. They knew the contrast also between the blast furnace, a veritable "hell on earth", where the hot iron flowed as the acrid smell of combustibles permeated the air contrasted with the eerie calm and darkness found working by the river at 3:00 a.m.
The Mill, The Jones and Laughlin Aliquippa Works was once the largest integrated steelmaking plant in the world. The mill no longer exists, but go stand on the site by the Ohio River and you will feel the memories and the presence of those are gone before you...I have.

a lost world comes to life
By Alexis rzewski
An impressive collection of oral histories from people that worked all aspects of a stell mill. The book is smartly divided into chapters where each chapter represents a section of the steel mill operations: "blast furnace, clerical, management, union, electrical, railroad" etc, and one person is represented for each of these chapters to tell the story of his specific duties and life. It includes pictures, diagrams, and charts. After reading the oral histories, one can follow somewhat their histories by reading the layout plans and the diagrams. All these people are now old, and soon gone. Only their stories will be left. The epilogue of the book is a silent display of black and white pictures of Aliquippa today: boarded up stores, abbandoned buildings and streets, images that constrast sharply with the other photographs in the book of joyful parades and crowded streets. Amazing how a boom town was created in response to a momentary economic force such as steel industry, and now is semi-state of abbandon. Sounds almost like a science fiction movie, of lost worlds of thriving communities, but that this book brings back to life.

Great concept, reads like a first draft, not a finished book
By LWW
I love this subject so the previous reviewer's comments about the poor editing didn't dissuade me from buying the book. There is a lot of information here, but it reads like a pile of notes bound together and not a coherent book. Here's an example" In the foreword, there's a four-column newspaper article which is a letter the author's grandfather wrote to the local paper about a strike. Great material for sure. But the columns are out of order (no fact checking) and there's no text to explain the context, like "This letter was written during the largest strike in, etc etc, and end by etc. etc." The letter is just thrown on the page.
And then throughout the book, as the workers tell their steelmaking tales, I kept thinking that the author should take a line or two and explain what the workers mean. We could skip many of the workers because they essentially say the same thing. So it'd be better to use the pages to put the language in layman's terms as much as possible. Then we'd have a historical record that future generations can understand.
I hate to criticize. There's something here and it could be fantastic, but it needs a good book editor to have a whack at it. As much as I love reading about old steel mills, an interest that I can't explain, I didn't finish this book.

realistic
By jmc80mac7
I enjoyed reading this book in its "true" format. Real people speaking their real response. Not something editied to make it sound real. You really needed to feel the words as people spoke to get the real meaning of how they thought. You could feel what it was like to have lived in that town during those days. Real people, real thoughts, Just honest people that did a job. Granted it was not always pretty and neat but when you LISTEN to them you understand what it was like to really work in a tough and dangerous place. I found this book a great insite into how America works. I visited that area last year and you can only think back to what it was like in the day!!!
