The Youngstown story often is told with a beginning in iron and steel
and ending in decay with a subplot driven by violent mobsters and
corrupt politicians. Aiming to provide a more well-rounded examination
of Youngstown, this collection of essays provides an authentic look at
the city through a diverse set of experiences from the perspectives of
those who have lived there. Readers will gain a sense of the past,
present, and future of the city. Edited by Jacqueline Marino and Will
Miller, the book features contributions by Christopher Barzak, Rochelle
Hurt, Eric Murphy, Ed O'Neill, Sarah Sepanek, David Skolnick, Sarah
Stankorb, C Lee Tressell, Jay Williams, Andrea Wood & 35 others.
