In 1980, the author's world was turned upside down when the steel mill in Southeast Chicago where her father worked abruptly closed. In the ensuing years, ninety thousand other area residents would also lose their jobs in the mills. In this book, she examines the fate of her family and that of blue-collar America at large.
