Ain't Nothing But a Man: My Quest to Find the Real John Henry by Marc Aronson, Scott Reynolds Nelson

5.0

I am so excited by this book. It is not a standard biography, but a model for doing historical research. The author walks the reader through the process of discovering who John Henry really was and how he got his information.
This book is a fabulous introduction for students on how researchers work.
