About

In the 1930s, huge dust storms swept through the Great Plains. Farmers lost their crops. Businesses closed. Hundreds of people moved West for the chance of a fresh start. Hear the words they spoke. Read the words they read. And see the differing points of view about the Dust Bowl through the eyes of the people who lived it.

Reviews

"Well designed and informative, these books are ideal for those new to primary source documents. . . .Strong options for introducing the concept of primary source analysis."
School Library Journal
"The layout includes "critical thinking" boxes which ask the reader to compare source quotations or consider a document's impact. . . .Titles would work well as guided introductory or overview texts at the beginning of a unit."
