   Description
The author's itinerant life during the Depression years of 1934 and '35 was unintentionally documented in letters to his brother that today drop us into his daily life with an astonishing immediacy. These simple letters relating his travels looking for work and life at a work camp project suggest that even the ordinary can become extraordinary when that era has passed into history. This book is extensively illustrated with the author's original photographs.
