Download or read book Bethlehem Steel written by Kenneth Warren and published by University of Pittsburgh Pre. This book was released on 2008-01-17 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 19th century, rails from Bethlehem Steel helped build the United States into the world's foremost economy. During the 1890s, Bethlehem became America's leading supplier of heavy armaments, and by 1914, it had pioneered new methods of structural steel manufacture that transformed urban skylines. Demand for its war materials during World War I provided the finance for Bethlehem to become the world's second-largest steel maker. As late as 1974, the company achieved record earnings of $342 million. But in the 1980s and 1990s, through wildly fluctuating times, losses outweighed gains, and Bethlehem struggled to downsize and reinvest in newer technologies. By 2001, in financial collapse, it reluctantly filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Two years later, International Steel Group acquired the company for $1.5 billion.In Bethlehem Steel, Kenneth Warren presents an original and compelling history of a leading American company, examining the numerous factors contributing to the growth of this titan and those that eventually felled it—along with many of its competitors in the U.S. steel industry.Warren considers the investment failures, indecision and slowness to abandon or restructure outdated "integrated" plants plaguing what had become an insular, inward-looking management group. Meanwhile competition increased from more economical "mini mills" at home and from new, technologically superior plants overseas, which drove world prices down, causing huge flows of imported steel into the United States.Bethlehem Steel provides a fascinating case study in the transformation of a major industry from one of American dominance to one where America struggled to survive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lehigh Valley Railroad established the Bethlehem Iron Company in 1860 along the Lehigh River in South Bethlehem. The Bethlehem Iron Company manufactured the largest steel axle to date to support the first Ferris wheel at the 1893 World's Fair. Bethlehem Iron Company became Bethlehem Steel in 1899. In 1904, Charles Schwab incorporated the company, and ultimately, it became the second-largest steelmaker in the United States. Bethlehem Steel built battleships, such as the USS Massachusetts and USS Missouri, and bridges, such as the Golden Gate and George Washington, and provided steel for iconic structures, such as the US Supreme Court Building and Madison Square Garden.
Download or read book The History of the Bethlehem Steel Company in the City of Lackawanna 1936 1956 written by Mary Ann Skibinski and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most awesome sights of the Buffalo industrial scene is that of the Bethlehem Steel Plant as it is viewed from atop the Father Baker Bridge. This sight is impressive enough to make one stop and think of what the city of Lackawanna, and even Buffalo, would be like in the absence of this industry. The vital part that the steel company plays in the lives of the citizens of Lackawanna is known to the author since a brother and two uncles work there. Despite the dirty, sprawling appearance of this industrial area, it is necessary to the life and growth of Lackawanna. In this paper, the author has attempted to present a history of the Bethlehem Steel Corporation in the city of Lackawanna as it is seen through the eyes of a small city newspaper over a certain period of time. In relying on information gathered from newspapers, one must be careful since they are often biased and generally make little effort to substantiate the facts and figures used. The author has attempted to sort out these various news articles and use them to present a history of an industry which is very important to the people in this area.

Book excerpt: Business genius and hedonist, Charles Schwab entered the steel industry as an unskilled laborer and within twenty years advanced to the presidency of Carnegie Steel. He later became the first president of U.S. Steel and then founder of Bethlehem Steel. His was one of the most spectacular and curious success stories in an era of great industrial giants. How did Schwab progress from day laborer to titan of industry? Why did Andrew Carnegie and J.P. Morgan select him to manage their multmillion-dollar enterprises? And how did he forfeit their confidence and lose the preseidency of U.S. Steel? Drawing upon previously undiscovered sources, Robert hessen answers these questions in the first biography of Schwab.
