Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. Doubleday, Doran and Company, Garden City, NY. 1944. Hardcover. Later printing. Book is tight, square, and unmarked but for a gift inscription on the front pastedown dated May 1945. Book Condition: Good; shelfwear to head, tail, and tips with worn fabric on front upper tip. No DJ. Dark blue cloth over boards and spine with gilt lettering on the spine; embossed cameo of Dr. Carver on the front board. Deckled fore edge. 342 pp 8vo. From the Missouri woods to international fame, and all the steps in-between are recounted with affection and genuine appreciation. As a child he was nicknamed a "plant doctor". In college, he shifted from art to agriculture, and later taught at Iowa State Agricultural University. Then he went to Tuskegee, where under Booker T. Washington he was allowed all freedom in his experimentation. From his laboratory came evolutionary discoveries of saving waste, turning things to new uses (peanuts, sweet potatoes, and beans were among the things he worked with), making great contributions to the new science of chemurgy, and giving practical aid to his neighbors, black and white. A thinker, rather than a fighter, capable when problems of color arose, a scientist rather than a sociologist, he was not only a great man of his race, but of all mankind. A clean very presentable copy.
