Where am I wearing? : a global tour of the countries, factories, and people that make our clothes / Kelsey Timmerman.

GLOBALIZATION. A journalist travels to Bangladesh, China, Cambodia, Honduras, and back to the U.S. to trace the origins of our clothes. Globalization makes it difficult for anyone to know very much about the origin of the products they buy. When journalist and traveler Kelsey Timmerman wanted to know where his clothes came from and who made them, he began a journey that would take him from Honduras to Bangladesh to Cambodia to China and back again. On the way, he discovered as much about people as he did about clothes and globalization.Bouncing between two worlds - that of impoverished garment workers and his own luxurious Western lifestyle - he puts a personal face on the controversial issues of globalization and outsourcing. Whether bowling with workers in Cambodia or riding a roller coaster with workers in Bangladesh, Timmerman bridges the gap between impersonal economic forces and the people most directly affected by them. Kelsey Timmerman (Muncie, IN) is a freelance journalist who travels regularly and maintains a travel blog called "Where Am I Wearing? His writing has appeared in the Christian Science Monitor and the Indianapolis Star, among other publications.
