Uprising

by Margaret Peterson Haddix

Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers · 2011 · 352 pages

Three young women from vastly different walks of life—a recent Italian immigrant, a fiery Russian labor activist, and the daughter of a wealthy industrialist—find their destinies intertwined in the garment factories of early 20th-century New York. As tensions rise and a strike ignites, their burgeoning friendship faces an unimaginable test. Haddix masterfully weaves their stories toward the infamous Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire, offering a deeply human perspective on a pivotal historical tragedy and leaving readers breathless until the very end.
