Описание:

They Said Thank You is the memoir of a former prison teacher who wants to set the record straight about inmates. In all of her years teaching, only the inmates said 'thank you.' In 1999, Diana Spinney helped to set up the education classes at the new prison in Burlington, CO. Soon she was the GED instructor. During her 14 years, 933 inmates earned a GED. This is the story about how they said 'thank you' and taught the teacher who they really were.

Описание:

A simple poster was all it took to change the lives of a German immigrant and his family, sending them over 800 miles away from their home in Lockport, Illinois. In 1910, O.R. Winkler, an iron foundry worker, chanced upon a glowing advertisement for fertile farmland and ended up purchasing a half-section in southwest Kansas, the driest and least populated part of the state. Taking a leap of faith, he and his wife and sons loaded their belongings into a boxcar and traveled to Gray County where they began farming land that had never been plowed.
