I am not sure what you want to know. Hoover was raised in a strict Quaker tradition, He lost both of his parents as young boy and so had to rely on himself. He worked hard at his chores and at school and was able to go to college. He was one of the first graduate in engineering at Stanford University and soon became known as an outstanding mining engineer. He built a very successful word-wide business in this area and made a fortune. During WW I, the Germans blockaded the ports of Belgium and the people there were close to starvation. Hoover learned of the problem and organized a huge humanitarian effort which saved. them.

In short, I would say that Hoover was an honest , brilliant, caring, hard-working, human being .
