Notes


An oral history of the Great Depression in Canada, presented through short first-person recollections gathered from men and women across the country. Barry Broadfoot’s first book brings together a wide range of memories from the years 1929 to 1939, recording everyday experiences of hardship, work, family life, and survival. While many accounts reflect conditions familiar to readers of Prairie history, the memoirs are national in scope and draw on voices from all regions of Canada, offering a broad portrait of Depression-era life.
