Book excerpt: The Dust Bowl: 1930–1939. With no one else around for a hundred miles, Major's busted family lives in a one room dugout as Major tries to reconcile himself to the fact that his own kin has taken the money and run. Out of an enormous storm—200 miles wide, 15,000 feet high—come two desperate men promising a way out. Their visit is a welcome break in the grinding routine of storm and quiet that Wishful Hi, Saromybride and Uncle Pogord have endured under Major's iron, heartbroken hand. But did his brother really get out and away? Who are these people? Where'd that money come from? Will the machine work? Are there lights in the sky?
