Description
Wheeling's early economic growth, decline, and attempts at revival are highlighted in this survey of West Virginia₂s first capitol. Wheeling's early diversified and manufacturing economy is discussed within the framework of the nail, steel, glass, tobacco, and brewery industries. Reasons for their demise and the city's subsequent decline are offered. Alongside the economic swings, Wheeling's attempts to deal with the problems of pollution, housing, city parks, and downtown revitalization receive treatment.
