The Dust Bowl is the name given to a period of drought and environmental catastrophe that occurred in the late 1920’s to the late 1930’s in the American West and Canada.  The class will cover the reasons the settlement of the west took so much longer than the settlement of the eastern parts of the U.S., the technological and political changes that allowed settlement and ultimately caused the Dust Bowl.  We will read and discuss the novel, The Grapes of Wrath, by John Steinbeck.
