In the heart of America, a metropolis is quietly destroying itself. Detroit, once the richest city in the nation, is now its poorest. Once the vanguard of America’s machine age - mass production, automobiles, and blue-collar jobs - Detroit is now America’s capital for unemployment, illiteracy, foreclosure, and dropouts.

With the steel-eyed reportage that has become his trademark and the righteous indignation that only a native son can possess, journalist Charlie LeDuff sets out to uncover what has brought low this once-vibrant city, his city. In doing so, he uncovers the deeply human drama of a city filled with some of the strongest and strangest people our country has to offer.

Any additional comments?

LeDuff's narrative of the Motor City squalor is gritty and authentic. The city IS a mess and he pulls no punches. He weaves the city's story with his family's history and demons artfully, albeit with blue collar language and coarseness that makes the book unsuitable for younger readers.

Gritty and authentic, just like Detroit

Detroit has been there my whole life, dying a little more every year. First there was the fear, then the fires, the scrappers, and now the deer. Charlie LeDuff explores his home town as a reporter, a war-time correspondent to the American tragedy. The stories he offers on the firefighters, the police, and the politicians is the best I've read explaining aspects of what I've heard through my own family. The stories Charlie offers on his own connection to Detroit, going in some way back to its founding in 1701, are a summary of how Detroit can weigh on you, change you in ways others don't appreciate, are wrenching.

With one exception (Mac-i-naw, not Mac-i-nac) the narrator absolutely nailed this performance as a film noir detective narrating a hard Detroit storyscape.

RIP Detroit Firefighter Walter Harris.

Pray for Detroit

Charlie LeDuff is an incredible talent....arguably the best “pure writer” I’ve ever read. Bravo Charlie! Bravo!

Spectacular

I thought these things had directors and editors. It's a book aimed at those familiar with Detroit, so the mispronounced words stand out a lot.

The reader mispronounced quite a few words.

Good story and told very well. I listened and read a total of four times.

Awesome
