Editorial Review:
Product Description:
A readable, perceptive account of the lives of fourteen gifted black Americans who have played important roles in this country’s scientific and industrial progress. The achievements of Benjamin Banneker, Granville T. Woods, George Washington Carver, and others have made Americans’ jobs easier, saved countless lives, and, in many cases, altered the course of history. “All of these men endured hardship . . . but managed to overcome obstacles. . . . Extensive bibliography.”--School Library Journal
