About this title

Synopsis

This isn't so much a history of Pittsburgh as it is a biography. Sometimes we're so afraid of what others think, we're afraid to declare who we are. This city is not midwestern. It's not East Coast. It's just Pittsburgh, and there's no place like it. That's both its blessing and its curse.

About the Author

Brian O’Neill is head of research and graduate studies in the Faculty of Applied Arts at the Dublin Institute of Technology.
