Hard Times by Studs terkel - it should be required reading in school
Edited on Sun Jan-30-05 01:51 PM by ChavezSpeakstheTruth
RandomKoolzip sent it to me in a care package and I can't put it down. It's all 1st hand rememberances of the Great Depression. Man I take alot for granted.

I recommend it highly.

1. Excellent book Chavez
And a good companion to that book was a earlier effort done by Studs called "Working" where he talks to everyone from Firemen to Prostitutes to mail carriers about, well... Working!
