Hard Times

Hard Times is the new book I'm reading. It's the author - Studs Terkel - interviewing people who experienced the Great Depression first hand. Obviously, it's very depressing. It's not all sad though. There are some cool stories in it; and there are so many different perspectives. There are actually some people who made money during the Depression. Even though I just basically started reading, it's a really good book and I definitely recommend it - especially if you want to witness real life stories of what went on during that time - not just what you read in the textbooks.
