A counterpart to John Steinbeck's Grapes of Wrath, Egan's nonfiction work tells the lesser-known story of those who stayed behind and survived t he dustbowl of the 1030's. Filled with incredible details, like boiling tumbleweeed to eat. This book will fill you with admiration for the toughness and resourcefulness of the farmers and others who stayed because they had no choice.
