Title
The Dust Bowl: An Illustrated History,New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In this riveting chronicle, which accompanies a documentary to be broadcast on PBS in the fall, Dayton Duncan and Ken Burns capture the profound drama of the American Dust Bowl of the 1930s. Terrifying photographs of milehigh dust storms, along with firsthand accounts by more than two dozen eyewitnesses, bring to life this heartwrenching catastrophe, when a combination of drought, wind, and poor farming practices turned millions of acres of the Great Plains into a wasteland, killing crops and livestock, threatening the lives of small children, burying homesteaders' hopes under huge dunes of dirt. Burns and Duncan collected more than 300 mesmerizing photographs, some never before published, scoured private letters, government reports, and newspaper articles, and conducted indepth interviews to produce a document that may likely be the last recorded testimony of the generation who lived through this defining decade.
