Years of Dust: The Story of the Dust Bowl

128 pp. | Dutton | August, 2009 | Trade ISBN 978-0-525-42077-4 $22.99
(3) 4-6 Although Marrin strays from his theme that the Dust Bowl of the 1930s was "the worst environmental disaster in American history," his detour, gratifyingly, covers a lot of interesting ground. The chronology of events is illustrated with dramatic archival photographs and a large number of sidebars that provide readers with background and context about the times. Reading list, timeline. Bib., glos., ind.
