Carlie’s Pick The Worst Hard Time
By: Timothy Egan
By: Timothy Egan
F 595 .D38 2006
"Timothy Egan’s The Worst Hard Time graphically portrays the hardships of a few families through the Dust Bowl period. In reading this book, I came to have a better understanding of what my grandparents lived through and why they still stock pile on dry goods, re-use aluminum foil, turn their drinking glasses upside down, and reminisce about the “hard times.” Not only is the book interesting from the historical perspective, but Egan’s writing is crisp and engaging. I didn’t want to put this book down."

"Obama showed his inheritance in this book and explained what difficulties his family had in their lives. One more interesting aspect of the book is his religious view, what may be a little bit controversial for a president of the United States. So I absolutely recommend you to read this book."
