Alleger compiled and published detailed books listing rosters and work summaries of CCC work in Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota and South Dakota. CCC historian Robert W. "Bob" Audretsch combed through the South Dakota and Minnesota books to list nearly 20,000 participating enrollees in 1934 including 8,917 from Minnesota, 5,309 from South Dakota, 2,399 from Kansas and 1,214 from Missouri.
