Auto Industry Secrets, Rackets, Dangers: The Plant Published by Outskirts Press

Outskirts Press announces the latest highly anticipated adventurers and explorers autobiography from Pontiac, MI author Robert Coe Bluestone, III.

Pontiac, MI, February 06, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Outskirts Press, Inc. has published The Plant by Robert Coe Bluestone, III. The author's most recent book to date is a 6 x 9 hardback edition with jacket in the adventurers and explorers autobiography category and is available worldwide on book retailer websites such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble. The webpage at www.outskirtspress.com/theplant was launched simultaneously with the book's publication.

Robert “Blue” Bluestone started working at National Motors in 1964, when he was still in high school. At that time, The Plant was a city within a city, full of its own secrets, dangers and rackets. Liquor was readily available from well-stocked bars (martini with olive, anyone?), gambling was a common occurrence, and prostitutes entertained their clients in the “All-American Room.” It was also a dangerous place to work, with many Plant Rats injured or killed, and it was a place where no one cared about racial differences. Black and white didn’t matter in this city -- it was all about brotherhood. Blue had to quickly learn about the movers and shakers, who to cross and who not to cross, what to say and how to say it. But he caught on quickly and spent the next forty plus years at The Plant. His witty and engaging book is the story of his life, with an insider’s view of the automotive industry as it evolved over the years.

184 pages in length, The Plant is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the adventurers and explorers autobiography category. With U.S. wholesale distribution through Ingram and Baker & Taylor, and pervasive online availability through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and elsewhere, The Plant meets consumer demand through both retail and library markets with a suggested retail price of $21.95.

Additionally, The Plant can be ordered by retailers or wholesalers for the maximum trade discount price set by the author in quantities of ten or more from the Outskirts Press Direct bookstore at www.outskirtspress.com/bookstore.

ISBN: 9781478715535 Format: 6 x 9 hardback w/ jacket SRP: $21.95
