Carolyn Brink does a crackerjack job of
celebrating Colorado's greatest teacher, Emily Griffith. This book,
which is one part history and one part inspiration, profiles the
extraordinary accomplishments of graduates of the Emily Griffith
Opportunity School, one of the world's first public schools "for all who
wish to learn" regardless of language, skills, ethnicity, or economic
status. Herein you will find heartening stories of how Emily still
transforms and uplifts human lives. ~Tom "Dr. Colorado" Noel
Carolyn Brink's inspiring collection of success stories pinpoints the
courage of men and women who pulled themselves up by their bootstraps,
even when they could barely afford boots. ~Dick Kreck, author,
