Summary: "Cliff-Notes" Biggest Hit! -- My High School Life-Saver!
Comment: Nothing beats reading the original works by the literary masters, but when a kid is required to read 10 novels, each spanning 400+ pages for ONE class, something's gotta give! During my senior year in high school, this copy of Cliff's Notes saved me from certain doom. Good old Mrs. Hedberg was as serious as a heart attack when it came to Shakespeare and other literary delights. Upton Sinclair's "The Jungle" was on her list of yummies for her defenseless seniors. At the time "Cliff-Notes" were the quick-fix for kids who just couldn't "curl up" with yet another classic, thus giving up a more entertaining Sunday Evening with Alice Hyatt, Archie Bunker and The Jeffersons (they ran back to back on CBS). -- If you want the facts, along with brief (but not too brief) plot summaries and a few great thoughts about the meaning of it all, this publication will "clue you in" on "The Jungle". I have used several "Cliff-Notes" in my day, and I can say with confidence that this particular one is the very best! -- My high school days were long ago, and I will never forget the lessons I learned from Mrs. Hedberg. I think she really knew about my passion for "Cliff-Notes" all along. As the years passed, not just for her, but for myself, I have read every single one of the classics I didn't make time for in high school. So if you're not in a rush, get the real thing (Upton Sinclair's "The Jungle"); this one is worth the effort and you will not be disappointed!

Summary: interesting but too much socialism
Comment: The first chapter was a little boring as the first chapter of most books are, but then it got a lot more interesting. It was very interesting, but also quite depressing because of the hopelessness of their lives and so many people die. It gets really boring at the end, though, when all it talks about for several chapters is how wonderful socialism is and how terrible capitalism is. These last few chapters are the reason I didn't give this book 5 stars.

Summary: Eye-opening look into the past
Comment: This book was wonderful. I was forced to read it for my Sociology class at Michigan State University. The first chapter dragged on, and I was wondering what I was forced into. Then as the chapters ran on, they became more and more interesting. I didn't want to put it down! Review: gorry, mind-opening, fantastic, almost unbelievable as to what those people had to endure at the turn of the century in Industrial America
