More about the book

Focusing on the experiences of over 77,000 Minnesotans during the Great Depression, the book delves into the history of the Civilian Conservation Corps through nearly one hundred interviews. Oral historian Barbara W. Sommer captures the memories of enrollees, including African Americans who faced segregation and CCC-Indian Division workers involved in significant conservation projects. Their stories highlight the transformative impact of the CCC on both individuals and Minnesota's natural resource conservation efforts during a pivotal time in history.
