The Jungle
Book Description
This quintessential muckraking novel changed the course of history with its gruesomely detailed depiction of the meat-packing industry. The book prompted the immediate passage of the Pure Food and Drug Act, caused a drop in the consumption of meat, and launched Sinclair's career as a champion of the working class.
