Wow! What an amazing story of overcoming obstacles and never giving up. There are so many levels to this story... This book would be great for a history class learning about industrialization and its enduring impacts. A simple but thought provoking read that immerses you into the life and point of view of the struggles others go through in other nations. It is truly eye-opening and a great overall story. I highly recommend!

The account of labor disputes in A Fight for a Cup of Chai will immediately remind you of Upton Sinclair. As a teacher of history, this book resonated so well with the plight that so many humans endure daily all over the world-... that with tragedy comes strength- with advocacy comes hope- and with resilience comes success. It is a book I will be sharing with my students for years to come. Wonderfully done.

A beautifully crafted memoir that should be taught as part of any high school and college history curriculum, as well as anyone interested in learning about the formation of unions and the sacrifices individuals make to help others who come after them.
