书籍简介
One hundred and fifty meters underground, Jenny Raschkes asked a miner named Smitty, "Does it seem strange to you that people know so little about you?" He replied, "I think they probably don't even know how this country actually runs."
This book tells the story of such people, who work hard every day to keep our lives running, yet we never give them a second thought. There is a whole world out there that we don't see: mining companies in Ohio, oil rigs in Alaska, migrant labor camps in Maine, air traffic control centers at LaGuardia, cattle ranches in Texas, landfills in California, long-haul truck drivers in Iowa, gun stores in Arizona, and even cheerleaders for the Cincinnati Bengals. Cheerleaders? Yes, they also represent the invisible America.
