This book is informative. The story evolves and you often feel emotionally conflicted - feeling sad for what happens and hopeful for change. This was my first graphic novel and I quickly read it front to back in 4 sittings. The story is a bit broken into short poingant sections to portray an image and the feeling, but then it moves on to another story. I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to men and women needing a perspective of life for our hardworking blue collars in society.
