A review by bookwormmichelle
The Boys in the Bunkhouse: Servitude and Salvation in the Heartland by Dan Barry

5.0

This fantastically researched, comprehensive and well written book will completely break your heart. I really can't believe that all the events actually happened--and only a ways down the road in Iowa. (Yes, Wapello County got a mention in the book. Not a favorable one.) I especially can't believe that social workers and reporters had investigated this operation before, and no one had done anything. Tragic. This was a very easy read for nonfic. Recommended for anyone who is still human.
