Can I recommend The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck? It’s historical fiction.
It’s a glimpse into life back then; focusing mostly on the affects of the dust bowl and how hard it was to find proper work. While not nonfiction, it may give you some ideas of specific things you can research more, like crop rotation and Hoovervilles/shantytowns.
Side note: I always think of the Great Depression when an appliance breaks. My history teacher said one of the causes was that things were built to last back then. When they say, “they don’t make them like they used to” it’s 100% correct. Now we make things with a shorter lifespan on purpose because, when things last forever, we don’t buy new ones.
