Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the causes and impacts of the mass migration of impoverished US citizens during America's Great Depression of the 1930s. The author argues that severe and sustained drought conditions, combined with government policies designed to encourage land ownership in the Great Plains region, led to widespread crop failures and economic hardship for farmers and their families. The book examines the role of federal assistance programs, such as the Agricultural Adjustment Act and the Farm Security Administration, in mitigating the effects of the drought and preventing even greater displacement. The author concludes that while these programs provided some relief, they were ultimately unable to stem the tide of human suffering caused by the relentless environmental and economic challenges of the time.
