Title
Steel: The Story of Pittsburgh's Iron & Steel Industry, 1852-1902 - Paperback
by Dale Perelman (Author)
A lively portrait of the "Steel City" and its millionaires and workers during the late nineteenth century.
Steel portrays the growth of iron and steel in smoke-filled Pittsburgh during America's industrial age, and what it meant for the people who lived there.
This history shares the fast-paced saga of millionaire barons Andrew Carnegie, Ben Franklin Jones, Henry Clay Frick, Henry Phipps, and Charles Schwab, who often plotted and schemed against each other--as well as the story of the underpaid and undervalued immigrant workforce whose desire to unionize united their bosses against them.
Here, author Dale Richard Perelman recounts this dramatic struggle and the bloody battles it spawned throughout Western Pennsylvania's plants, mines, and railroad yards.
Author Biography
Dale Richard Perelman has written several books including Mountain of Light, The Regent and Centenarians. Mr. Perelman holds a bachelor of arts degree in English literature from Brown University and an MBA in industrial relations from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.
