Life in the Iron-Mills Summary
| Wolfe, while Deborah watched him as a spaniel its master, bent over the furnace with his iron pole, unconscious of her scrutiny, only stopping to receive orders. Physically, Nature had promised the man but little. He had already lost the strength and instinct vigor of a man, his muscles were thin, his nerves weak, his face ( a meek, woman's face) haggard, yellow with consumption. |

| The novella highlights the horrendous conditions of the mill workers. It narrates the virtuous disposition of the labour classes as contrasted with the selfish attitude of mill-owners. The work was based on the authoresses own observations and is considered one of the finest works of American realism. |
