Answer:
"Hitch" by Jeanette Ingold
Moss Trawnley wants to bring to his dad the message that he too can work to maintain the family, which the dad has abandoned without solace amidst the Great Depression.
Explanation:
According to history, the Great Depression was a severe economic recession that started in the United States in the 1930s and affected the whole world, amidst the second world war.
Jeanette Ingold decided to capture how young men volunteered to work in order to help their families to survive the Great Depression in the "Hitch." The main protagonist is Moss Trawnley who is determined to prove to his father that he can help sustain the family that his dad has abandoned in Texas without parental succor.
Based on this, Moss signs himself up for a six-month hitch with the Civilian Conservation Corps and lands an assignment building a new CCC camp outside of Monroe, Montana. With this job, he regularly sends money to his mother to take care of his younger siblings before the mother gets a regular job.
