Born a slave in Missouri, he left home in search of an education, eventually earning his master's degree. When Booker T. Washington invited Carver to start the agricultural department at the all-black-staffed Tuskegee Institute, Carver truly found his calling. He spent the rest of his life seeking solutions to the poverty among landless Black farmers by developing new uses for soil-replenishing crops such as peanuts, cowpeas, and sweet potatoes. This STEAM biography reveals Carver's complex and profoundly devout life.","brand":"Astra Young Readers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44214615638271,"sku":"9781635925616","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781635925616_s600x595.jpg?v=1780932047","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781635925616","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
