Lisa and Elisabeth Wang discuss The Four Winds written by Kirstin Hannah. This is a book that highlights the Dust Bowl and The Great Depression.
Elisabeth is a former English teacher and is currently in healthcare communications. She has written the bookish blog Lit & Leisure since 2009. You can also find her on Twitter or Instagram.
