This is a book showing what one man can do to change the world --and it's akin to a miracle!
He was the son of immigrants from Norway.
He began his education in a one-room country school, failed his pre-entrance exam for college, and ended up a PhD!
He developed a new wheat strain that yielded a double crop and revolutionized Mexico's agriculture and saved thousands of its people from starvation!
He nearly singled-handed spread his plant expertise to China, Africa, and many other parts of the world, and saved hundreds of millions more!
He received the Nobel Peace Prize and over 50 other awards (from "all over") for his efforts to save people from death by starvation and was acclaimed as among the 100 most important persons in the 100th century!
Read his story. It's unbelievable!
