Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. General wear to book corners and edges. Previous owner has signed inside cover.

Today, few can comprehend what it was like to live through the Great Depression. Grinding poverty meant that many children had to work. Childhood was a luxury. Despite this, the Depression Generation did not become hard and bitter. Overall, they were a generous and relatively socially cohesive group.

This book is a collection of interviews with people who grew up through the Depression - men and women, urban and rural, Australian born and migrant.
