Jan Schlictmann, that lawyer that would ultimately take on the case after another lawyer had turned it over. She voiced her conclusion to many of the other parents and the doctor who diagnosed the children. Anne comes to the conclusion that the water supply in the town was the source of the multiple diagnosis of leukemia in children. While the government stated the water was in good condition, the wells of those particular water supplies were shut off and re-open multiple times. Many people had complained about not only the taste of the water but the color. It was mentioned, the water supply in Wodburn but not the best. Anne becomes determined to find the source of this leukemia outbreak in children. Anne Anderson, a parent whose son was also diagnosed with leukemia began to notice many other children living in her neighborhood had also been diagnosed with the disease. While many of the children went into remission, mostly all of them ultimately died from the disease. A Civil Action, from what I have read thus far is about a town in Massachusetts, named Wodburn, where many children had been diagnosed with leukemia.

The details about these people and their emotions make Fritz's biographies and other historical books come alive for today's readers.Until she was 12 years old, Fritz and her family lived in China, where she relied on stories and writing to ease her loneliness.

She says, "My beat may lie in another time, but my approach is that of a reporter, trying for a scoop, looking for clues, connecting facts, digging under the surface." At the center of her research are the people who shaped the past, and she is especially interested in the quirky things about them. Jean Fritz researches the past as if she were a journalist.

For example, I have one by my bed, one on audio in the car, one by my couch, one on Kindle, one in my purse, and one in the bathroom. I am one of those people who reads about ten books at a time.

Isenberg shows how the “waste people” of the British Empire were transformed into landless squatters, with names like lazy crackers and hillbillies deployed to justify their impoverished status.Įarly promoters of the backwardness of the poorer classes of white people drew their inspiration from popular animal husbandry journals. This white servant class was fostered as a “racial and class barrier between the slaves and landed elites.” Bacon’s Rebellion in 1676, however, exposed the real problems the colonial rulers had maintaining that barrier.Īlthough white, this underclass was never bestowed with the full rights given to middle- and upper-class whites in either the colonial administrations or after the American Revolution. From the beginning, Isenberg argues, a permanent underclass of whites was essential to the new ruling class, as laws required one white servant for every six slaves purchased. Her book begins in colonial America-where surplus poor people were sent by the British Empire to form what Richard Hakluyt envisioned as “one giant workhouse.” In the colonies, aristocrats extended the empire’s system of class hierarchy with the introduction of chattel slavery. They are renamed often, but they do not disappear.” These are the people at the center of Nancy Isenberg’s newest book, White Trash. |
