The mission of Cleveland-based Belt Publishing is to publish books — primary nonfiction — that cast light on life in Rust Belt cities. It’s done so through city neighborhood guides and anthologies of essays about different cities, as well as personal memoirs and stories about issues, both historical and contemporary, that these communities have faced.
In its next (still online) event, a group of Belt authors who have published books about different cities. Participants include editors of five of its anthologies: Eric Boyd (Pittsburgh), Samuel Love (Gary, Indiana), Shannon Shelton Miller (Dayton). Jacqueline Marino (Youngstown) and Amanda Page (Columbus), along with David Hardin, author of Standpipe: Delivering Water in Flint. Martha Bayne moderates.
