"Who Killed Detroit" explains how the automobile industry,
migration of blacks, housing segregation, riot of 1967, rise of
radical groups, and the resulting reactions since then have left
this great city in shambles. No other American city has offered so
much to so many in the first half of the twentieth century. And no
other city has collapsed as completely as Detroit in the second
half of the twentieth century. "Who Killed Detroit" explores what
can be learned to prevent a similar fate in other cities. Former
Detroit Police Commissioner Spreen reveals secret documents that
explain the operations of groups that killed Detroit. Blame is laid
at the feet of politicians, the press, pressure groups, the police
and the people. Rumors that have floated about for 40 years are put
to rest. Spreen and Holloway shed light on the forces and
psychological factors that bring a city down. They examine problems
that still exist and threaten the survival and progress of the
city. They also list preventive actions that cities can take to
avoid a similar fate.
