The Worst Hard Time: The Untold Story of Those Who Survived the Great American Dust Bowl by Timothy Egan

dark sad tense medium-paced

5.0

I thought I knew everything I needed to know about the Dust Bowl, but I was incorrect. Better than the Ken Burns documentary and not just because I didn't have to listen to "Bringing in the Sheaves" over and over. 

I really wanted to find out what happened to Don Hartwell, a farmer in Nebraska, but the book left me hanging and I had to google a bit, but that is my only issue. 

Listened to the audio book, I'd only give the reader 2/5 - please stop doing accents.
