Books to read

[Towntalk]

Someone asked me what books on the history of Youngstown they should read, and I made this suggestion:

1.   Historical Collections of the Mahoning Valley
2.   A Twentieth Century History of Youngstown and Mahoning County – Sanderson
3.   History of Youngstown and the Mahoning Valley – Vol. 1 – J. G. Butler

All three are available at Google Books.

I told them that they should read them in the above order to get the best picture of our history since no one book is really comprehensive enough to get a full view of our history.

Does anyone have any suggestions about books that are more recent excluding Howard Aley's book?
