George W Carver, child of slavery, orphaned and alone, ahd a difficult time securing his education. But he was growing up in the United States and, according to one of the best of the American traditions, he did secure that education. And then he devoted the remaining fifty years of his life to repaying the country which had given him the opportunity. As a teacher, he enriched the minds of thousands of young Negroes; as an agriculturist, he helped free the Southern farmer from the bondage of the cotton system; as a scientist, he opened up vast possibilities for industrial expansion which would make the lives of his fellow human beings more comfortable and secure. His influence reached round the world and into many countries; his humanity knew no boundaries, (1943 edition), Blue cloth over boards, 342 pages.
