A couple of days ago I finished a book called Lost by Jacqueline Davies, which is an historical novel about the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire, then I saw an ad on HBO about a new documentary about the fire. Today I saw an article about the remains of some the victims being identified and thought this is definite blog material...Guess this tragedy will always be with us.
An excellent website about the fire is at Cornell University.
Other excellent novels to use in the classroom are Ashes of Roses by Mary Jane Auch and Uprising by Margaret Peterson Haddix.
