Steel: The Story of Pittsburgh's Iron & Steel Industry, 1852–1902

Steel portrays the growth of the iron and steel industry in smoke-filled Pittsburgh during Americaï¿½s industrial age. Itï¿½s the fast-paced saga of millionaire barons Andrew Carnegie, Ben Franklin Jones, Henry Clay Frick, Henry Phipps, and Charles Schwab. These strong-willed leaders often plotted and schemed against one another yet united against their underpaid and undervalued pro-union immigrant workforce. Author Dale Richard Perelman recounts this struggle of bloody battles throughout Western Pennsylvaniaï¿½s plants, mines, and railroad yards.
