An account of the fallout from the closing of a General Motors' assembly plant in Janesville, Wisconsin - and a larger story of the hollowing of the American middle class. This is the story of what happens to an industrial town in the American heartland when its factory stills. Takes the reader into the lives of autoworkers, educators, bankers, politicians, and job re-trainers to show why it's so hard in the twenty-first century to recreate a healthy, prosperous working class. This is not just a Janesville story or a Midwestern story. It's an American story Published By Simon and Schuster on 2017-04-18
