Far more Jewish immigration history than Italian, and has some spicy takes at the end on the ethics of sweatshops 😅
But the chapters on the Triangle Waist Shirt Factory were exactly what I wanted, so I’d recommend breezing through the rest and giving a close read of Chapters 4 and 5.

the last 20% of the book is half decent and at least twice as factual as the rest. unfortunately, the fixation with eastern european jewish immigrants continued apace as he somehow managed to emphasize the jewish population over even the italians when discussing the mob involvement with the garment industry, even referencing them while discussing the italian mobsters themselves.
disappointing but unsurprising
