Answer :
Upton Sinclair's famous novel, "The Jungle," was a scathing critique of the situation that existed in American factories in the beginning of the 20th century. The book highlighted the poor sanitation and worker standards that existed in meat packing and processing plants. As a result of the book Congress enacted two major pieces of legislation seeking to address the problems addressed in the book. The first was the "Meat Inspection Act", and the second was the "Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906."
