the American public worked together to get through the massive hardships,
and how the economy recovered with World War II. Examine the changes that
swept the shaken nation during the first year - from the landslide victory
of FDR in 1932 to Dust Bowl farmers. Americans sought release from the hard
times wherever they could find it - from marathon dancing to going to the
movies. As the Depression lingered and the New Deal failed to live up to
people's expectations, some Americans fought back against the system. After
years of crisis, WWII approached and did what all the protests and recovery
programs failed to do - end the Depression. Includes photos, rare interviews,
and footage of the culture, media, and politics of the times.
