The Jungle, is the most popular and influential of all of Upton Sinclair's novels, recounts the shocking tale of immigrant Jurgis Rudkus and his desperate life in the Chicago Stockyards. Atragedy about humiliation and exploration of one man's family at the hands of an uncaring society, the book created a public furor over the dangerous, unsanitary conditions in the meat packing industry, and led to the passage of the "Pure Food Act." Peter Kuper's dark brooding illustrations evoke the mood of Sinclair's eye-opening story.
