    About the presentation

    While the entire world and all of the United States suffered dearly during the Great Depression, Michigan was uniquely singled out. The 1930s was an extremely painful decade for families and those brave to face these times as individuals. What circumstances contributed to the lost decade? How did families survive during these most difficult times? When and how did the depression come to an end? Could similar problems plague out state today?
