Von Drehle, David Triangle: The Fire That Changed America
New York, New York, U.S.A. Atlantic Monthly Press 2003 0871138743 / 9780871138743 Hard Cover Near Fine Near Fine
Near fine to fine hardcover book in near fine to fine dust jacket; never having been read and as new, the book is clean, tight, square, and free of any markings showing only very light bumping to the board edges; unclipped dust jacket shows very light shelf wear but is also in near fine to fine condition; book now protected by newly applied Brodart clear cover; 340 pages including index, bibliography, endnotes, and appendix; illustrated with 16 pages of black & white photographs; second printing of first edition. A compelling historical narrative of the New York City, Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire of 1911. This workplace disaster, the worst recorded until 9/11 (146 people were killed, most of them Jewish and Italian immigrant women), spurred the reformations of these sweatshop factories as well as planting the seeds of liberalism that would later come to fruitation in FDRs New Deal. The author puts the fire in its historical place, humanizing the workers who were killed, and detailing the politics of the city at the time. "A riveting History written with flair and precision."
