by Bridget Obikoya (Author)
This book is a compilation of three of the many bulletins Dr. George Washington Carver produced entitled: 1916 Experiment Station: How to Grow the Peanut & 105 Ways of Preparing it for Human Consumption; How To Grow The Tomato & 115 Ways to Prepare it for the Table; and How to Make Sweet Potato Flour, Starch, Sugar Bread & Mock Cocoanut. Dr. Carver produced these bulletins from 1898 to 1943 while a professor and agronomist at Tuskegee Institute. Dr. Carver dedicated his life to working in agriculture and the cultivation of soil for the fruit that it bears. He indicated that soil "can be built up and be made much more productive, and thus bring about a more ideal type of general prosperity and happiness for those whose labors are spent in the tilling of the soils." It is in that spirit that we hope to share with you just a smidgen of his enormous body of work. We hope that you, too, will benefit in general prosperity and happiness from his work and share it widely with others.
