Triangle

Více o knize

The book details the catastrophic fire at the Triangle Shirtwaist factory in 1911, a pivotal event in labor history that claimed the lives of 146 individuals, predominantly women. It explores the harrowing circumstances of the disaster, including inadequate safety measures and the inability to rescue trapped workers due to insufficient firefighting equipment. This tragedy not only marked the deadliest industrial accident in New York until 9/11 but also galvanized labor reform and heightened awareness of workers' rights and safety regulations.
