| Description |
This volume briefly examines the origins of Kennecott Copper Corporation, the growth years, and the post-World War II events that left Kennecott seriously weakened by 1980. Against this background, the Kennecott story is then brought up to date. The bulk of this document deals with strategies, decisions, and actions that renewed Kennecott's historic copper properties after 1980 |
