The Jungle by Upton Sinclair was written in 1906. This was a book about the meat packing industry. Upton Sinclair hung around Chicago for 7 weeks and learned all the insights of the industry. His book opened the eyes of many people, even the then current president, Theodore Roosevelt. This book disgusted just about everyone who read it. Two Laws where passed shortly after this book was published.
