Review:
"Stark and powerful, a gripping if depressing read and a timely reminder that a nature abused can exact a terrible retribution."
Kirkus, 11/15/2006
Review:"The story of the Dust bowl is inherently dramatic, and Egan...vividly brings both his witness and the weather to life. The book is, for the most part, thrilling."
Elizabeth Royte, New York Times Book Review, 12/25/2005

Book Description: Mariner Books, United States, 2006. Paperback. Book Condition: New. Reprint. 208 x 144 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. The dust storms that terrorized the High Plains in the darkest years of the Depression were like nothing ever seen before or since.Timothy Egan's critically acclaimed account rescues this iconic chapter of American history from the shadows in a tour de force of historical reportage. Following a dozen families and their communities through the rise and fall of the region, Egan tells of their desperate attempts to carry on through blinding black dust blizzards, crop failure, and the death of loved ones. Brilliantly capturing the terrifying drama of catastrophe, Egan does equal justice to the human characters who become his heroes, ?the stoic, long-suffering men and women whose lives he opens up with urgency and respect" (New York Times).In an era that promises ever-greater natural disasters, The Worst Hard Time is ?arguably the best nonfiction book yet" (Austin Statesman Journal) on the greatest environmental disaster ever to be visited upon our land and a powerful cautionary tale about the dangers of trifling with nature.
