註釋The riveting, come-back of Schenectady, one of upstate New York's most iconic cities.Once known as "The City that Lights and Hauls the World," Schenectady enjoyed decades of dizzying economic success. But as GE divested, things took a turn for the worse. With historic photos, deeply-researched details and thought-provoking portraits of some of its most dynamic citizens, William Patrick tells the story of how this small city on the Mohawk River rose to economic prominence, then - when faced with overwhelming forces that pushed it toward imminent ruin - found innovative ways to rebuild.
