Description
This book . . . documents better than any economic historian could some of the enormous changes our economy and our society have been going through.American culture and politics are shot through with nostalgia for the countrys industrial past, a time when we actually made thingsphysical things, not patterns of bits and bytes. But what did this past actually look like? Photographer Michael L. Horowitz has traveled throughout the Northeast in search of its remnants, both heritage businesses that have survived to the present and the ruins of decommissioned factories and infrastructure. The spaces he takes us inside range from the intimate to the vastfrom the last silk flower workshop in New Yorks Garment District to Buffalos looming grain elevators and the Paterson Great Falls Hydroelectric Plant, in operation since 1914. Horowitz photographs these places with the eye not only of a photographer but of someone who has taken the time to understand their inner workingsan understanding that is extended to the reader through Jim Holtjes lively and carefully researched text.Cathedrals of Industry
