Ain't Nothing but a Man Author Scott Nelson makes history come alive for young readers as he presents his personal quest for the true story of John Henry and the man behind the myth. Nelson presents the John Henry folk song as a kind of mystery, with clues embedded within--clues he pursues to uncover many surprising truths. The story is multilayered--weaving the story of how the railroads were built and the period of Reconstruction, folk tale, American mythology, and song with a first-person account of how the historian works. Here, history is not a stagnant set of facts but a process of discovery. Hardcover 12/26/2007
