Reviews

One-hundred-year histories of firms and communities are rare. The Disston Company provides an excellent case study to examine issues of interest to business, economic, labor, and social historians. The extraordinary photographs by themselves represent a contribution to scholarship. This book deserves to reach a wide audience. --Walter Licht, University of Pennsylvania
