About this product

Product Information

Around her the workers were screaming out prayers and curses.... She herself was sobbing tearlessly.... Her only prayer was still, "I don't want to die." Oh, please, God, don't let me die, she thought. I've never even had a chance to live. Bella, newly arrived in New York from Italy, gets a job at the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory. There, along with hundreds of other immigrants, she works long hours at a grueling job under terrible conditions. Yetta, a coworker from Russia, has been crusading for a union, and when factory conditions worsen, she helps workers rise up in a strike. Wealthy Jane learns of the plight of the workers and becomes involved with their cause. Bella and Yetta are at work -- and Jane is visiting the factory -- on March 25, 1911, when a spark ignites some cloth and the building is engulfed in fire, leading to one of the worst workplace disasters ever. Margaret Peterson Haddix draws on extensive historical research to bring the tragedy of the Triangle Shirtwaist fire to tangible life through her thrilling story of Bella, Yetta, and Jane.

  • Another EXCELLENT Haddix Book

    Margaret Peterson Haddix is an amazing author. Her stories stick with you lo-ong after you finish reading. Uprising is a Historical Fiction novel; left my daughter teary-eyed and talking about it for days! It also left her with an intense interest and understanding of that particular event in history, and how it affected future planning and behavior. The book now sits at the top of her FAVORITE BOOKS shelf.
