  • Summary

  • Sure - people say America is built on A LOT of things, but the rise of Industrial America depends on two things - Bread and Steel. Steel to make the Great American Dessert into the Great American Bread Basket - and all that wheat would make the steel of the railroad make lots of sense very quickly.

    If you are curious just what steel is - and how all that early American iron is related, this is your episode. Sure - I'm a food podcast, but this time it's all about Geology, Steel and some bread.
