100 Most Dangerous Machines of the Industrial Age (1900–1950)
Between 1900 and 1950, American industry was built by machines bigger, faster, and more dangerous than anything workers had faced before. Steam shovels carved Panama. Riveting machines built skyscrapers. Coal cutters tore through mines. Sawmills, presses, cranes, furnaces, threshers, drills, dredges, and grinders changed the country forever. But these machines did not just build America. They crushed, burned, buried, poisoned, and amputated the workers who stood beside them. This is the story of 100 deadly machines from the first half of the twentieth century, and the one simple safety part that was missing from almost all of them. A guard. Cheap to make. Simple to install. Often left off because speed mattered more than the men feeding the machine. 100 machines. No guards. All bone, steam, steel, dust, and nerve.
