It is a love story, a rags-to-riches story, an anti-racist story and a triumph over injustice story. Taking place in the antebellum South, it tells the tale of how a lowly slave... a hidden genius... defies all odds and becomes one of the richest men in America. In Pygmalion* style, the young slave is taught proper elocution and English grammar, a gift that takes him from picking cotton to dealing with some of the wealthiest and most powerful men in America. It's also a touching, tender... if unlikely... love story between two young men... one a slave, the other his owner. It takes the reader from the rural South to New Orleans, St. Louis, Chicago, Philadelphia, New York and London. It makes the incredible, credible.*Pygmalion is the George Bernard Shaw play on which the movie \"MY Fair Lady\" was based. It shows how the gift of language can change a guttersnipe into a princess.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Neubert\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8886931913\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798886931914\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Austin Macauley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/15\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.58d","brand":"John Neubert","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44302468710655,"sku":"9798886931914","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5198b8cb-67cf-4d25-820e-e912c72837b4.jpg?v=1695161780","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-stable-boy-john-neubert-9798886931914","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
