Here is link to Ken Burns’ Nov 18 & 19 program about the Dust Bowl:

This is in addition to the depression of the 1930’s. So many farms in our
central KS area were lost that one
banker took his own life. I started driving tractor in early 1940’s and can
remember several places where sand
had blown, creating large low spots, and down wind of these low spots were
significant hills (deposits of sand).
