The Merchant of Maine: L.L. Bean is Born
| |
| For the first 39 years of his life, few people ever thought that Leon Leonwood Bean would amount to much.

Canadian steel plants produced almost 16 million tonnes of steel in 2007, employing about 32,000 people and, by one estimate, supporting 140,000 indirect jobs, she said.
