Depression/New Deal site

I didnt like this website as much as the WWI website, but I really enjoyed looking at the photos of the depression. I think looking at pictures of life during the depression makes it easier to imagine what the time must have been like for those people. I could read about it and never quite understand the time period, but looking at those pictures made it ten times more interesting and tangible to me.

I think everyone felt the same way about this site being less exciting than the last. I definitle liked the WWI site better, too.

I agree, the WWI site was better, but this one did at least have pictures (most of which I couldn't see for some reason) but the ones that I did see did make it easier to see how bad conditions really were during the Great Depression. I agree with Jordan that it's one thing to read about something in a textbook book, but it's more effective to see pictures because visuals always make things easier for us to understand.
