Rust: The Longest War by Jonathan Waldman

3.0

This was a great topic for a book. The author sort of meandered through the topic. The most interesting part to me was the section on how aluminum cans are made. The section on how they manage rust in the Alaska oil pipeline was also interesting. Less interesting were the sections about the Department of Defense's program to manage corrosion and a photographer who photographs rust.
This is the authors first book and it showed. He tried way too hard at times. He went out of the way to discuss mustaches or lack there of on everyone he met or discussed.
I'm terrified that all the bridges I drive over are moments away from collapsing as a result of our failure to manage corrosion as a country.
