Notes

Description
The industrialist and philanthropist Andrew "Carnegie believed strongly in sharing his wealth, and one of the ways he did this was by funding the construction of over 2,500 public libraries around the world. His philanthropy completely revolutionized public libraries, which weren't widespread at the time. Told in simple, lyrical text, the story unfolds against ... illustrations that transport readers to the bustle and boom of the Industrial Revolution"--Amazon.com.
