Knygos aprašymas

Based on over 50 hours of oral histories, as well as dozens of rare photos from archives and museums around the country, On A Burning Deck combines the previously published paperback versions of On A Burning Deck, The Road to Akron and On A Burning Deck, Return to Akron into one, handsome hardback volume. Filled with additional information and dozens of previously unpublished photos, On A Burning Deck is the only work to offer a complete portrait of one family's origins in rural Kentucky, migration to Akron, Ohio, work in the rubber factories and eventual impact on local politics and government.

Meticulously researched, rich in detail, thoroughly referenced for historical perspective, and completely indexed with hundreds of names, this contextual oral history is a must-read for anyone interested in 20th-century history, Ohio or Kentucky history, industrial relations, local governance or genealogy. On A Burning Deck is a tale well-told with wry humor and deep insight into the people, the "hillbillies," who came from Western Kentucky to build modern industrial Ohio and forever leave their imprint.
