| Abstract |
On the Monongahela River bank, John Chapman (1774-1845), an eccentric, self-appointed missionary is visited by God’s angel bearing to him a vocation: to broadcast apple seeds in the borderlands that will feed the hungry and the poor for generations. In Pittsburgh, he receives his new name: Johnny Appleseed.
