The Senator and the Runaway Teenager in the Great Depression

Summary: How a Hardworking, Honest, Teenager Overcame Adversity
Review: Having thoroughly enjoyed Edwards' first autobiographical book, we were pleased to learn there was a sequel. This proved even more interesting than the first. It was fun to read, with the kind of adventures few young people would experience today, and each teaching a useful lesson for living a moral life.

Summary: Duval Edwards writings
Review: It was indeed an outstanding surprise to read the powerful and charming biographical books written by Duval Edwards: "The Great Depression" and "The Senator and the Runaway Teenager". Here you have an exemplary life: a fighting soul, a hard-working boy, a lawyer, a soldier, and a father. These are the role models that America needs, not the phony material that the media presents as examples to our youth. Duval Edwards represents the best that America has to offer to the world - a poor young man, coming out of poverty through hard work, stamina, ingenuity, and good use of the mind.

My feeling is that these two books (which, by the way, make very easy and pleasant reading) should be in the Must Read list in every intermediate and high school in the country. They are extremely inspirational. Thanks Duval.
