Description: We may think times are tough in America now, but the struggles encountered by the Joad family during the Great Depression were undoubtedly more challenging. Joining countless other migrant workers seeking a better life in the Promised Land of California, their wayward journey leads to side trips at squalid labor camps where efforts to find work and rebuild their lives evade them. Although they travel in circles of desperation, a determination to survive arises out of the dust of hopelessness—ending with a spark of compassion and tenderness that will touch your heart.
