About the Book

Edit

Dayton, Ohio. The birthplace of powered flight, an industrial and military hub, now rebuilding from a Great Recession and the years preceding it that emptied city blocks and stripped out industry and wealth.

But there's new energy and vitality here. The fabled Average City, USA, is a place in transition, like America. Who are the people of the Emerald City? A roving camera captures them as they are – in all their hopeful, struggling humanity.

Introduction by Jim DeBrosse.

New photographs from Steve Bennish, author of the documentary, “Scrappers: Dayton, Ohio, and America Turn to Scrap.” The book, Ebook and PDF are also for sale here on Blurb. Includes Leica Camera First Place Street Photography winning photograph.
