From Publisher:

In 1955, John H. McConnell, the son of a steelworker, borrowed $600 against his 1952 Oldsmobile to finance the Worthington Steel Company. McConnell, an experienced steel broker, perceived an opportunity: large mills were shifting processing capabilities away from smaller customers. Today, Worthington has earned a position as one of the nation's largest steel processors by serving customers with specialized needs, and in the 1980s, built a large custom plastic capability. The company produces metal framing for construction, body panels for cars, railcar castings, and pre-formed dashboard assemblies for major automakers. Jeffrey L. Rodengen captures the story of free enterprise and personal drive in this well-illustrated volume.
