Description: This is a 1906 Doubleday, Page & Company hardcover edition of "The Jungle" by Upton Sinclair. The boards show rubbing and scuffing, especially on corners and the spine. The overall structure and fingers are in very good condition. There aren't any obvious signs of inscriptions, marginalization, or dog-eared pages. Upton Sinclair was a famous novelist and social crusader from California who pioneered the kind of journalism known as "muckraking." His best-known novel was "The Jungle, " which wasan expose of the appalling and unsanitary conditions in the meat-packing industry, leading to widespread public outcry and ultimately prompting the passage of landmark food safety legislation. The book was banned in multiple countries, not just for exposing the meat industry, but also forits socialist views and opposition to communism.
