By the end of the 1980s, the once mighty U.S. steel industry seemed
on its last legs. More than a quarter of a million jobs had been
lost, and communities like Pittsburgh and Bethlehem were
devastated. Yet today, the industry again stands as a world-class
competitor. In The Renaissance ofAmerican Steel, Roger Ahlbrandt,
Richard Fruehan, and Frank Giarratani illuminate the forces behind
this remarkable comeback, drawing valuable lessons for managers not
only in the steel business but in any business now battling the
global marketplace.
