A son of a Methodist preacher, attending DWU to become one himself. Then, changing course and obtaining a P.H.d. in history....all after his flying missions in WWII. It was in Italy during the war that he witnessed hunger and near starvation. His big three concerns and commitments were: agriculture, education, and hunger, Mr. Knock wrote about in this book. He also explains why they meant so much to our Senator from South Dakota. He was the one who brought about the free lunch program for all children in poverty in the United States. Senator McGovern meant so much to us South Dakotans, people all over the country and beyond. This book is a must read.
