Perhaps the largest crisis in our nation’s history, how did our financial system fall to the brink of near destruction so quickly and dramatically? What was President Hoover’s role? How FDR saved the day with his New Deal. And we now enjoy macaroni and cheese as a result of the 1930s pop culture. And it’s all experienced in this Toolbook!

- Pop culture in the 1930s: Escapist movies, the soap opera, and macaroni and cheese.
