The Jungle by Upton Sinclair

I had not read Sinclair's seminal novel that was a spark in changing the way people saw the meat packing industry at the turn of the 19th to 20th centuries and actually led to regulatory changes. So I was pleased to read it. The actual text though, as published by Amazon, came in microscopic print on cheap paper. It really was a challenge to read a book this poorly manufactured -- so, in summary, very interesting novel, very bad edition.

The start is very difficult, but worth persevering. The Amercan Dickens crossed with Michael Moore.

I have to confess that my brother is a "libertarian" who spends his days in retirement listening to FOX and the other fascists on "talk radio". While brain washed, I have to confess that in his case it only took a slight rinse. I read this book for the second time and sent it to him. While I didn't expect him to read it, his grand daughter did read it and now she understands the labour movement.

This is not an official copy of the book. Poorly made and does not follow the correct page formatting.
