About this book

The pioneering investigative journalist Ida Tarbell—whose exposé of Standard Oil helped define the muckraking era—looks back over a remarkable career in this candid memoir, recalling her groundbreaking reporting, the great figures she encountered, and the changing America she chronicled. Written with intelligence and modesty, it reflects on journalism, reform, and a woman's path in a male-dominated profession. A valuable firsthand record of the Progressive Era and the birth of investigative journalism, it captures both a personal story and a pivotal period of American history. Thoughtful and engaging, All in the Day's Work is the memoir of a trailblazing woman who helped hold power to account.
