Life on the line : one woman's tale of work, sweat, and survival

""De Santis left her job as a journalist to work on the assembly line at General Motors. In Life on the Line, she recounts in vivid detail just how and why she undertook this path of seemingly reverse ambition. What she discovers at the failing GM plant where she worked was at times surprising, even humorous, and at other times grim. She found equal measures of competent hard workers, raging alcoholics, mindless bureaucrats, and good friends.""@en
