Description
It is the 1930s, and the United States is reeling from the effects of the Great Depression. In the southern Great Plains, a combination of bad farming practices and drought has caused the rich farmland to dry up and blow away. People call this devastated area the Dust Bowl. Will you: • Stay on your Dust Bowl farm and try to survive? OR … • Leave the farm to try your luck elsewhere? OR … •Document the horrors of the Dust Bowl as a government photographer? Everything in this book happened to real people. And YOU CHOOSE what you do next. The choices you make could lead you to survival or to death.
