About

In one of the most honored books of the year, David Von Drehle transports us to a beautiful spring day in March 1911 when 146 workers-most of them young immigrant women-lost their lives. Employees had just begun preparing to leave the Triangle shirtwaist factory in New York's Greenwich Village when a fire broke out and within minutes consumed the building's upper three stories.

It was the worst workplace disaster in New York City history until 9/11.
