Notes

Description
"Upton Sinclair wrote The jungle after working undercover in Chicago's meatpacking district for seven weeks. His aim was to draw America's attention to the plight of exploited immigrant workers and usher in a new age of socialism. Indeed, the public was horrified, but not by workers' suffering. Rather, Sinclair's graphic descriptions of the industry's filthy conditions and use of diseased animals quickly led to passage of the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906"--Jacket.
