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

4.0

An interesting read that is also a great example of the research process and different search strategies. I thoroughly enjoyed exploring the history or John Henry along with the author. I found it particularly interesting that the person who the author believes to be the true John Henry was not the large muscled strong man that tales lead us to believe. Very interesting and should help spark research interest in students.
