Three million children could no longer afford to go to school; two million were forced to work. Some, struck by the Dust Bowl, ended up as "Okie" refugees in California; others became boxcar kids, hopping freight trains and bumming meals as they roamed the country. Memoirs, diaries, letters, and archival photographs chronicle the lives of Amierca’s youth during its most devastating economic crisis.
