Lewis Hine and the Southern Drought: a Visual Testimony of the Rural Depression

The author discuuses the significance of Lews Hine's drought
photographs in the context of American history and the American
photographic documentary tradition. In 1931 Hine was contracted
to publicise the drought conditions and associated relief
activities for the Red Cross as a human interest story.
