Over three years, under the auspices of the Resettlement Administration and the Farm Security Administration, Dorothea Lange and her husband, Paul Schuster Taylor, photographed and talked with migrant labourers in California, drought refugees from the Oklahoma Dustbowl, tenant farmers in Alabama, and others affected by the harsh economic and environmental conditions. 'Both Lange and Taylor were concerned, in their concept of good documentary practice, neither to sensationalise, aestheticise nor patronise. Their determination to be as objective as possible, and more importantly, to carry that objectivity into the presentation of the material, makes An American Exodus arguably the best of the many books dealing with the Depression.' (The Photobook 123).
