SynopsisGoldsteen and Schorr document the development of mistrust of the government from the nuclear power industry and the citizens near Three Mile Island regarding the 1979 disaster at the plant. (Environmental Studies), One didn't have to be a farmer to sense an intimacy between the land and the towns of Goldboro and Newberry Township, communities in central Pennsylvania characterized by brick farmhouses, fenced pastures, and two-lane roads. The four concrete towers rising out of the nearby Susquehanna River, visible some seven miles away, were incidental to most lives in the area. Then, in the spring of 1979, when local farmers were preparing the earth for planting, the worst nuclear accident in the history of commercial power in the United States took place there, at Three Mile Island. This volume furnishes the reactions of residents of those two communities to the accident.
