In 1974, Bill Ganzel, a photographer from Lincoln, Neb., went on the road trip. For seven years, carrying copies of photographs by Arthur Rothstein, Walker Evans and others, Ganzel sought the same people and scenes that the F.S.A. photographers had taken during the 1930s. In 1986, he published “Dust Bowl Descent.”
