Salvaging History Conclusion BibliographyReviewsSteven High is one of the most creative scholars of deindustrialization, oral, and public history. One Job Town is a creative and moving account of a paper mill's life and death and showcases High's talents in a focused case study of a single mill for the first time. Here, High has ably documented the history of a community that has been largely ignored in Canadian history and is often forgotten by power brokers in Toronto and Ottawa. - Jeffrey T. Manuel, Department of History, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville ""One Job Town is simply one of the finest books written about Northern Ontario. It is a model study that the academic community and, more importantly, those living in Northern Ontario will be excited about."" -- Michel S. Beaulieu, Lakehead University * <em>University of Toronto Quarterly: Letters in Canada 2018</em> * Author InformationSteven High is professor of History at Concordia University and co-founder of the Centre for Oral History and Digital Storytelling.
