Dust to Eat

Buy Dust to Eat

The Dust Bowl during the Great Depression is considered here, with moving archival photos--many by Dorothea Lange--of the Okies' heart-rending journey west to California, and the native Californians' efforts to force them back to their home states with bum blockades. Comments from John Steinbeck and Woody Guthrie augment excerpted letters and interviews from survivors of the period, and maps and posters help explain the
refugees' desperate plight; many children starved to death or dropped dead from illness. Cooper offers the underlying reasons for the massive conflagrations of dust along with some surprising facts: in one day, 350 million tons of dirt blew east over 2000 miles. A comprehensive bibliography and index accompany the text.
