This review is from: The Soil Soldiers: The Civilian Conservation Corps in the Great Depression (Hardcover)
Educator Lacy has written a fine account, both personal and political, of the Civilian Conservation Corps. As a crew leader for teenagers in the modern Youth Conservation Corps, I was struck by the similarity in the conditions attitudes, and humor of '30s Depression kids, how hard they worked and how creatively they complained about working hard, and what I heard from my '80s teens doing the same kind of sweat labor. A book with great relevance to the '90s, youth development, youth employment, and ending the destructive negativism against youth rampant at our highest levels. Highly recommended.
