The Factory Girls: A Kaleidoscopic Account of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire by Christine Seifert

3.0

---

This is a decent nonfiction look at the Triangle fire for younger teens. It's written in a very slangy contemporary style which might not hold up well in a few years, and it's unfortunately plagued by typos that should have been caught by an editor, but the information is well organized and presented in a way that holds your attention. I would probably direct older teens or those with stronger reading skills to one of the Triangle histories published for adults if they have interest in this area.
