Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Irondale, a quiet residential community ten miles south of Port Townsend on the northeast corner of Washington's Olympic Peninsula, was once home to a major West Coast iron and steel industry that lasted from 1881 to 1919. In its heyday, especially 1909-1911, the town was a bustling commercial hub with daily ocean steamer traffic arriving and departing, carrying hundreds of passengers and tons of cargo, raw materials, and finished products. Though Irondale's future seemed promising, in true boomtown fashion the town and its industry prospered and declined together." "Irondale's turbulent history reflects conditions faced by western entrepreneurs, including stiff competition from established eastern cities. The striving for financial profit and for a self-sufficient economy free from eastern domination encouraged speculation and boosterism, a theme found commonly throughout U.S. history. Western growth during the late nineteenth and early twentieth century spurred a greater demand for iron and steel, materials used not only in household farming implements but also necessary for all types of structures and transportation facilities, particularly railroads." "Diane Britton's impressively researched work greatly advances an understanding of community- and industry-building in the West. It provides the first narrative account of the rise and eventual demise of an integrated steelworks at Irondale, examines the intimate relationship between the town and plant, and places that local history into a larger regional and national context."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fifty Years of Iron and Steel O have lived during a period of over sixty years of T the world's greatest accomplishment and to have been an eye-witness especially of the great development in this country's iron and steel industry, should be almost glory enough. To have been, during this period, an active factor in this constructive work, at all times taking a leading part in all of the industry's activities, makes the author of this paper a unique figure among American men of affairs - men who have done things. To have been an eye-witness of iron and steel development from the conversion of the first barrel of Lake Superior ore to a period when over sixty million tons come down the Lakes and other millions are smelted in the Upper Lake region, is something few have experienced. To have been connected with the pig iron industry when only six hundred thousand tons were made a year and be still connected with it when nearly forty million tons have been produced in this same period, is an honor that probably no one else can claim.
