A Rhodes Retrospective

Originally published in two separate volumes, A Rhodes Retrospective: Consolidated Edition tells the story of Merle McClung's education and career. Volume I: My Education details McClung's experience from an impoverished mid-west childhood to unlikely scholarships to Harvard College, Oxford University, and Harvard Law School. Volume II: My Career follows Merle's quest to achieve financial independence while also serving the public good, despite declining health and other obstacles. His advocacy for the civic standard as the primary purpose of public education, culminating in founding Make Our Democracy Work Enterprises ("MODWE"), will appeal to all citizens committed to making our democracy work better.
