At the Crossroads
Middle America and the Battle to Save the Car Industry

At the Crossroads: Middle America and the Battle to Save the Car Industry by Abe Aamidor and Ted Evanoff (Hardback) (ISBN: 9781550229042)

While the background and context of the book is the current crisis in the American automobile industry, the focus is on Kokomo, home to three generations of autoworkers. This is the story of the union leaders, the salaried plant managers, the elected local officials as well as ordinary citizens in the town. In telling their story, the authors succinctly explain how the Detroit autombobile industry stumbled and how this affected millions of people in the US, Canada and Mexico. The populist narrative is ultimately an exhortation to save the stumbling industry.
