Book Synopsis Forced Choices by : Charles S. Varano
Book excerpt: What happens to employees when their company decides to close? Thousands of workers across America have faced this prospect in the past twenty years, but relatively few have chosen to buy the company and operate it as a worker-owned concern. Forced Choices examines the celebrated case of Weirton, West Virginia, where steelworkers and area residents fought to save a steelmill, community, and way of life.
