Factory Girl [Greenwood, Barbara] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Factory Girl

Review: A bit of history - How appalling this kind of “work” went on. Seems unreal today, but we know it happened!
Review: Mill workers, unite !!! - Before the New York shirtwaist fire, factory girls were in every city and mill town of the growing US. These young women worked under dangerous and unfair conditions, responding to a male-dominated foreman and factory owner only interested in greedy profits. It was sad to realize how much hurt is evident in these women's eyes. A great read and exact historical record of dominance by one gender over another.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A bit of history
*by K***Y on May 31, 2023*

How appalling this kind of “work” went on. Seems unreal today, but we know it happened!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mill workers, unite !!!
*by J***S on May 5, 2012*

Before the New York shirtwaist fire, factory girls were in every city and mill town of the growing US. These young women worked under dangerous and unfair conditions, responding to a male-dominated foreman and factory owner only interested in greedy profits. It was sad to realize how much hurt is evident in these women's eyes. A great read and exact historical record of dominance by one gender over another.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A beautifully written weaving of historical fact and fiction
*by B***R on October 17, 2007*

This was a fantastic book. It is reminiscent of the American Girl Series in that the fact-based fictional character is an independent, progressively-minded girl of her time period, and in the way historical facts and photos are woven in with the fictional text. However, it is written in a much more sophisticated manner than the American Girl books, and provides more depth of information. We have read several of Barbara Greenwood's other books as well, and they are similarly beautifully written and illustrated.
