More Than Peanuts - Edith Powell - Bog

Bag om More Than Peanuts

"Here is your journey of George Washington Carver, the shy, unassuming scientific genius of Tuskegee Institute, and white businessman Bob Barry, Grady Porter, and Tom Huston--through the letters they wrote to each other and to others who joined them on a quest to grow the peanut industry in the South by understanding and solving the problems faced by farmers. The letters document a fascinating early example of cooperation between farmers, private business, university researchers, and government policymakers in the early twentieth century. Even more importantly, the story offers eloquent testimony to a lasting interracial friendship in the segregated south--so much more than peanuts"--Back cover.
