i really did enjoy this book...i am at the beginning stages of my Deaf culture studies...i was recommended this book by my professor and i would recommended it to anyone who is interested in the Deaf culture and history of the community...even if you are not studying the Deaf community it is a very interesting read and it might bring you into a world in which you want to learn more about...peace
