Most students at one time or another will write a book report on John Steinbeck's depression-era novel, The Grapes of Wrath. Book summaries usually begin with the Oklahoma dust bowl, which ruins crops and later leads to the ruin of families whose farms are foreclosed, forcing them to leave home to find work. The struggles of the migratory workers during the Great Depression are evidenced through the Joad family. The first member of the Joad family introduced by Steinbeck is Tom Joad, a man in his late twenties and recently released from prison for murdering a man during a fight. Having just been released, Tom is hitchhiking back to his family's Oklahoma farm. During his travels he meets up with Jim Casy, a preacher he knew from his childhood. Casy gives Tom a summary of what he's been up to, that he's no longer a preacher, but sees the holiness in all people and the interconnectedness of humankind. Casy and tom decide to travel together to the Joad farm. . . . .
