George Washington Carver
George Washington Carver had a very rough beginning in life but he pushed himself to get an education and to excel. Because of this he was able to serve his country, the American people, and the African American community with distinction. You will find books about other famous African American people in the
Biographies section and in the
Black History Month Feature.
