Schuler Interviewed on 'TechVibe Radio' about 'The Steel Bar'
Ron Schuler, author of THE STEEL BAR: PITTSBURGH LAWYERS AND THE MAKING OF AMERICA, talked with TechVibe Radio hosts Audrey Russo and Jonathan Kersting about THE STEEL BAR and his work-in-progress, 7 BALLPARKS IN PITTSBURGH.
Kersting and Russo talked with Schuler about how Pittsburgh has been at the center of so many important issues in American history, from the legitimacy of the Constitution during the Whiskey Rebellion, to the battles between Labor and Capital during the Gilded Age, to the rise of federal regulation and the delocalization of American corporations. They also discussed some of the reasons behind Pittsburgh's decline during the 1970s and 80s, and the tech revival in Pittsburgh that persists today. "If you care about Pittsburgh at all, just buy [THE STEEL BAR]," said Russo. "You won't regret it."
Schuler also discussed his upcoming book, 7 BALLPARKS, saying "If you think it's going to be a book about baseball, it's not ... it's also about land use, the history of gambling in Pittsburgh, the history of municipal corruption in Pittsburgh, the Great Migration, racial tensions, iconography in architecture ..." It is not just about the ballparks themselves, Schuler says, but about "where they came from."
