Upton Sinclair made a name for himself in the early twentieth century when he published The Jungle, a novelized expose about the American meatpacking industry.
A recent book about Sinclair reveals that he was just as interested in healthcare reform.
Historian Ruth Clifford Engs tells Sound Medicine's Dr. Steve Bogdewic some stories about Sinclair that she's included in her recent book, Unseen Upton Sinclair.
Dr. Ruth Clifford Engs is a health historian at Indiana University. She edited Unseen Upton Sinclair, which was published in 2009.
