The Jungle
Emory Davis
Upton Sinclair's book "The Jungle" played a significant role in spurring public outrage and awareness about the unsanitary conditions in the meatpacking industry, which ultimately led to the passage of the Pure Food and Drug Act in 1906. Rachel Carson's book "Silent Spring" also helped raise awareness of the dangers of pesticides and industrial chemicals, paving the way for increased consumer protections in the United States.
