Capital's Utopia: Vandergrift, Pennsylvania, 1855-1916

LOW QUANTITY

In Capital's Utopia Anne E. Mosher offers the first comprehensive geographical overview of the industrial restructuring of an American steelworks and its workforce in the late nineteenth century. By offering a thorough analysis of the Olmsted plan, Mosher integrates historical geography and labor history with landscape architectural history and urban studies. As a result, this book is far more than a case study. It is a window into an important period of industrial development and it's consequences on communities and environments in the world-famous steel country of southwestern Pennsylvania.
