Title: Voices from the Oil Fields
Description: In the late 1930s, employees of the Federal Writers Project "told in these word-for-word recollections of early-dayworkers in the 'oil patch'. In vivid, often poignant detail these men and women recall the grueling toil, primitive living and working conditions and ever-present danger in a time when life was cheap and oil was gold."
