George Washington Carver: A Life From Beginning to End

De: Hourly History

Narrado por: Matthew J. Chandler-Smith

“Most people search high and wide for the key to success,” George Washington Carver pondered. “If they only knew, the key to their dreams lies within.” True to his philosophy, the key to Dr. Carver’s almost legendary success story was to be found within the man himself. From slavery to fame, from errand boy to botanical genius, Carver’s accomplishments, popularity, and legacy were all ignited by the vision he carried within.

From this audiobook, you will learn about:

• The $300 Boy
• From slave to college graduate
• The clash of the two Washingtons
• The Jesup wagon
• Carver's peanuts
• Later life and death
• And much more!

Often, George Washington Carver is remembered only as the man who could make almost anything out of peanuts. That was only part of his story.

A good summary

This book is a good summary and introduction to a man who lived a remarkable life.

What a great life!

A man that could have been a millionaire gave it up to help the poor.

Lacking details

This book was too succinct to properly tell the story of George Washington Carver, and the narration is a bit robotic.

Significant details left out

There were very significant details left out. This book was too surface level to be a biography in my opinion. It did not give the respect to Carver that I expected nor did it honor the harm of his enslavers at all.
