This book is about building construction workers. It provides an inside look into the work world of those who build our buildings. The signs indicating "Hard Hat Area - Danger - Keep Out" will be ripped down to expose those forbidden areas called building construction projects. The mystique of these highly paid, beer drinking workers who whistle at women and extoll patriotism will be explored.
