Book Review of Packinghouse Daughter: A Memoir

Packinghouse Daughter: A Memoir
reviewed on + 6 more book reviews


An excellent read part coming of age and part remembrance of a time when blue collar work earned a wage that supported a family. The effect of the strike at the city's largest employer, a meat packing plant in Minnesota on teens and family dynamics are skillfully told.
