In Iron Will: Cleveland-Cliffs and the Mining of Iron Ore, 1847--2006, Terry S. Reynolds and Virginia P. Dawson tell the story of Cleveland-Cliffs, the only surviving independent American iron mining company, now known as Cliffs Natural Resources. Headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, Cleveland-Cliffs played a major role in the opening and development of the Lake Superior mining district and Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Through Cleveland-Cliffs' history, Reynolds and Dawson examine major transitions in the history of the American iron and steel industry from the perspective of an important raw materials supplier.

Reynolds and Dawson trace Cleveland-Cliffs' beginnings around 1850, its growth under Samuel L. Mather and his son William G. Mather, its emergence as an important player in the growing national iron ore market, and its tribulations during the Great Depression. The authors explore the company's fortunes after World War II, when Cleveland-Cliffs developed technologies to tap into vast reserves of low-grade Michigan iron ore and turned to joint ventures and strategic partnerships to raise the capital needed to implement them. The authors also explain how the company became the largest independent producer of iron ore in the United States by purchasing the mining interests of its bankrupt partners during the implosion of the American steel industry in the late-twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Reynolds and Dawson detail Cleveland-Cliffs' evolving efforts to deal with labor, from its early mostly immigrant workforce to its ambitious program of welfare capitalism in the early twentieth century to its struggles with organized labor after World War II.

Iron Will is a thorough, well-organized history based on extensive archival research and interviews with company personnel. This story will appeal to scholars interested in industrial or mining history, business historians, and those interested in Great Lakes and Michigan history.

Calm Cream for Redness
This naturally plant based eczema cream is really calming on my skin, and it feels lovely with no irritation from using it. The texture color was kinda new to me due to the color of how it looked when I opened it (you really can't tell it's cream),but It didn't bother me anymore after I started applying it on my skin and started smelling the loving aroma it had to it. It resembled that of a calming Shea Cocoa butter mixed with a hint of fresh oats. unfortunately it didn't last long though(1-2 minutes after applying). Since using this cream my skin has been fully moisturized and calmed with no itching. Now though my skin gets irritated occasionally due to changing weather, I can't fully say it helps clear up my flare-ups entirely. What I can say is that for me since applying this on my red spot areas, it has kept the itch at bay considerably and made the skin smooth to boot. So I will continue using this cream and hopefully through time it will fully clear up.

Liquify when warm
I love the face lotion. The other is sticky and just kinda sits on top of the skin.
