Andrew Carnegie：Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie, Additional Excerpt 439

This is an indication of the character of the leader of his race. No truer, more self-sacrificing hero ever lived: a man compounded of all the virtues. It makes one better just to know such pure and noble souls--human nature in its highest types is already divine here on earth. If it be asked which man of our age, or even of the past ages, has risen from the lowest to the highest, the answer must be Booker Washington. He rose from slavery to the leadership of his people--a modern Moses and Joshua combined, leading his people both onward and upward.
