This
paper examines David Cassuto's view on John Steinbeck's "The Grapes of Wrath," and discusses how the Dust Bowl may not have been only a natural disaster, but rather one exacerbated by
economic hardships. This paper talks about the economic
hardships and the unfairness of the economic situation as it is described by Steinbeck. The author shows that
misuse of land to provide crops for the whole country during World War I
led to a misuse of
water which, in turn, led to the Dust Bowl.
