Sydney, NSW: Library of Alexandria,NO DUST JACKET 1923 . Used. EX LIBRARY. FRONT COVER HAS SOME WEAR DUE TO THIS BEING A 1923 PUBLICATION. PRIOR OWNER SGNATURE ON INSIDE COVER AND SPILT ON INSIDE SEAM FROM SPINE. Upton Beall Sinclair Jr. (September 20, 1878 November 25, 1968) was an American writer, political activist and the 1934 Democratic Party nominee for Governor of California who wrote nearly 100 books and other works in several genres. Sinclair's work was well known and popular in the first half of the 20th century, and he won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1943. In 1906, Sinclair acquired particular fame for his classic muck-raking novel The Jungle, which exposed labor and sanitary conditions in the U.S. meatpacking industry, causing a public uproar that contributed in part to the passage a few months later of the 1906 Pure Food and Drug Act and the Meat Inspection Act. In 1919, he published The Brass Check, a muck-raking expos of American journalism that publicized the issue of yellow journalism and the limitations of the "free press" in the United States. Four years after publication of The Brass Check, the first code of ethics for journalists was created. Time magazine called him "a man with every gift except humor and silence". He is also well remembered for the line: "It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it.
