Introduction: remembering Youngstown -- Reading the landscape: conflict and the production of place -- Steel town -- Deindustrialization and the struggle over memory -- From "steel town" to a "nice place to do time" -- Epilogue: community memory and Youngstown's future.
"Once the symbol of a robust steel industry and blue-collar economy, Youngstown, Ohio, and its famous Jeanette Blast Furnace have become key icons in the tragic tale of American deindustrialization. Sherry Lee Linkon and John Russo examine the inevitable tension between those discordant visions, which continue to exert great power over Steeltown's citizens as they struggle to redefine their lives."--Jacket.
