Alcoa Pilot (ship)

[edit]

Jack Kerouac mentions a "US Alcoa Pilot" freighter in his book, "Vanity of Duluoz". 68.193.141.193 (talk) 23:32, 9 February 2024 (UTC)corphoReply

Some sources

[edit]

https://thereader.mitpress.mit.edu/the-uneasy-alliance-between-aluminum-and-warfare/ has more good stuff in it. "From Monopoly to Competition: The Transformations of Alcoa, 1888–1986" (ISBN 978-0521352611) looks like a great specific source, though it appears to be out of print. If anyone can find a copy at their library or used book seller, that'd be great, as Amazon wanted an arm and a leg for a copy. CaptainEek Edits Ho Cap'n! 02:47, 23 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Mellon

[edit]

It is amazing that there is no mention of the prominent role of Andrew Mellon. RichardBond (talk) 01:41, 28 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

Hi -- I've added the AI-generated tag to one section of this article, specifically based on this diff; while this is a suspicion and not proof, the section should nevertheless be reviewed for accuracy/tone. Gnomingstuff (talk) 05:05, 18 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
