This essay is derived from my forthcoming book Sloss Furnaces and the Rise of the Birmingham District: An Industrial Epic, University of Alabama Press. Research for this project was supported in part by Summer Stipend No. FT-33831 (1990) from the National Endowment for the Humanities, Washington, DC, and by a series of Mellon Fellowships from the Virginia Historical Society, Richmond, Virginia. Grateful acknowledgement is also made to Dr Paul F.
