The+Great+Depression

The 1920's represented a time of wealth and great spending, but that spending went a little too far. On October 29, 1929, also known as "Black Tuesday" the stock market effectively hits rock bottom and the Great Depression begins. This begins a period of hardship and struggle for our country that will last from 1929 until our entrance into WWII in 1941.
