The Legendary Graduate (book)

The author of The Legendary Graduate, Joseph D. Smith.

The Legendary Graduate[1] is sold and produced by Lulu (company), the publisher of the first successful work of autistic author, Joseph D. Smith.

The Legendary Graduate is the poetry book of the autistic author Joseph D. Smith, son of the Kentucky Colonel, Hon. Wendell Joe Smith . It was inspired by his actual graduation, where he graduated at the Barren County, KY Courthouse, in Glasgow, KY, USA, in place of his high school graduation, with his friend, the judge, Hon. Phillip Patton hosting the ceremony, with only his closest friends and family watching. The Sheriff of Barren County, Chris Eaton presented him with his medal, which he frequently wore around his neck.

In the dedications of The Legendary Graduate it read "From Joseph: To those who believed I could.", because his medal that spins around reads "To Joseph from those who believed you could".

The Legendary Graduate was put together by the author with over 40 of his own original poems that he had collected on his computer over the years. It features very controversial content, such as drug use, social commentary, nonsensical poems, and even about spirituality. His mission was to create a better world by sharing his visions in his poetry.

The Legendary Graduate was written with the hopes of helping people understand an autistic mind, to unlock its secrets, and most importantly understanding his own mind.

The book has been featured in the Thanksgiving edition of The Glasgow Daily Times.[2] The article was titled "Smith compiles a book of poetry".

The author, Joseph D. Smith, was featured on the iWannabeFamous[3] website, where he discussed his graduation and his intentions.

The book is also available in the nternet archives.[4]
