Synopsis
Ben Hamper vowed never to be an autoworker. Life had other plans. In the 1970s and '80s, the General Motors assembly plant in Flint, Michigan provided steady work for the town's citizens. But at what cost? The man the Detroit Free Press calls "a blue-collar Tom Wolfe" delivers a full-barreled blast of truth and gritty reality in Rivethead, a no-holds-barred journey through the belly of the American industrial beast. With the perspective of the blue-collar voice that is rarely heard, Hamper chronicles ten years spent in the drudgery of factory labor and its mind-numbing working conditions.
