The Boy Who Never Gave Up
This is the story of a boy from Henryville, Indiana, who was six years old when his father died and his mother was forced to start working in a tomato cannery, leaving him to cook and care for his siblings. Life hit him hard at a young age, and because of the difficult situation he faced, he was forced to work as a farmhand at the age of ten. When he was in sixth grade, he dropped out of high school and left his home. He began working as a painter of horse carriages. When he was 16, he lied about his age to serve in the United States Army and was honorably discharged a year later. He began working as a railway laborer and studying law at a neighboring university until he lost his legal career by getting into a fight and was forced to move back in with his mother and obtain a job selling life insurance.
