This book provided incite to the “city” of Pittsburg. From community attitudes to geographical setup, the author outlines the characteristics that make Pittsburg different from other cities in the United States. Highlighting personal stories the reader gets to understand first hand the culture of Pittsburg. Overall, I enjoyed reading more about Pittsburg and hope to one day visit the city the author describes.
