Upton Sinclair the Beef Trust Exposer and Idealist
J A Edgerton profiles Upton Sinclair the 27 year old writer whose novel The Jungle sparked government action against the beef trust. The piece traces his youth in Baltimore and New York, early writing pace, struggles, socialist turn, and relentless drive to reveal corporate corruption and push for reform. It notes Roosevelt’s interest, Beveridge bill controversy, and Sinclair’s dedication to a cooperative vision.
