Book synopsis

The "iron lace" that graces the businesses, homes, squares, and cemeteries of Mobile, Alabama, is as vital a part of that southern port city. Looking at how ornamental cast iron defines Mobile's heart and soul, this work explains how the local iron industry developed and then fiercely competed with big northern foundries.
