5.0 out of 5 stars Sensitive, thorough, readable!, December 26, 2006
This review is from: Coming of Age in the Great Depression: The Civilian Conservation Corps in New Mexico (Hardcover)
What was it like for young men, out of work and money, during the Great Depression? Professor Melzer has written a sensitive, very thorough, yet readable, book on the boys who worked the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in New Mexico, 1933-1942. It is obvious that Melzer interviewed many of the CCC boys (many have passed away by 2006), read the New Mexico newspapers, researched in the archives. I especially appreciate his liberal use of quotes from the men themselves, from their letters and the reports they wrote. Highly recommended.
