[ARCHIVED] The Dust Bowl

A Film by Ken Burns. Premieres November 18th and 19th, 2012 on PBS At 7:00 P.M.
Books are available at Museum!

The Dust Bowl, a two-part, four-hour documentary from Ken Burns, chronicles this critical moment in American history in all its complexities and profound human drama. It is part oral history, using compelling interviews of 26 survivors of those hard times--what will probably be the last recorded testimony of the generation that lived through the Dust Bowl. The film is also a historical accounting of what happened and why during the 1930s on the Southern Plains.
