Summary
"This is the story of a young boy of seven from the state of Maine whose family was so fractured by the socio-economic upheavals of the Great Depression that he and his father and uncle were forced to migrate to the agricultural labor camps of California, Oregon, Washington and Idaho while his mother and two small brothers returned to her family's home in downeast Maine, awaiting the time when they could be together again as a family. Early on in a cotton field north of Indio, California, they met and became friendly with a writer named John Steinbeck who was writing ... the Grapes of Wrath."
