The Bread Winners: A Social Study is a novel written by John Hay in 1883. The book is set in the late 19th century and explores the lives of working-class families in New York City. The story follows the struggles of the Gracchus family, who are trying to make ends meet in a society where the gap between the rich and the poor is widening. The father, Michael Gracchus, is a hard-working laborer who is determined to provide for his family, while his wife, Margaret, takes care of their children and home. The story also introduces other characters, including Michael's friend, Jim Everhard, who is a socialist and advocates for workers' rights, and the wealthy banker, Mr. Huntington, who represents the upper class. The Bread Winners explores themes of social inequality, class conflict, and the struggle for survival in a rapidly changing society. The novel is a powerful commentary on the social and economic conditions of the time and remains relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
