Billy Graham in Quotes

Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham with Donna Lee Toney is a compilation of quotes from renowned author, preacher and evangelist Billy Graham. The book covers numerous topics from age to character to family to hope to money to salvation to worship and more. The book has many uplifting and eye opening quotes that can fit into any situation. The books is beautifully organized and reads more like an insightful novel rather than a compilation of quotes. Reading all the different quotes given by Graham throughout his career truly gives you an insight into who this man really is. A quotation is known as the repetition of one expression as part of another one. The book is laid out in a way that makes it very easy to find what you are looking for. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes to add quotes to either blogs, handmade cards or even scrap booking. It's a beautiful book that should be read by many.

Happy 4th!

George Washington Carver

George Washington Carver, the American scientist, botanist, educator, and inventor was born in 1864. His life was controlled by the rigid constraints of racism and slavery but nothing could kill his inner urges to educate himself and help keep his faith. Not all of George Washington Carver's life was controlled by racism. He was raised for a part of his life in a wonderful home of a white family who showed him faith and gave him the interest in plants that would one day make him one of the most famous African Americans in United states history.
George Washington Carver by John Perry tells the amazing story of one of Americas most influential scientists, fighting through slavery and racism to become a man many should look up to. Through all the obstacles he had to face he never gave up on his education or his faith. It was that inner strength that makes him an influential man of Americas history.
This book is a wonderful book, especially for students who want a quick read. This book tells the amazing life of the man many have come to know as the man who discovered over 143 uses of the peanut and so many other things.
