Contact seller5-star sellerHardcover. Condition: Good. No Dust Jacket. First Edition; First Printing. Library stamps/marks/labels/pocket/slip, spine darkened, cover soil, light tone, otherwise light wear. Solid hardcover.; "The vast majority . do not seem to realize what an extraordinarily large percentage of the greatest men and women have been physicall…y handicapped. It is the joyous mission of this book to prove to all invalids, but more especially to those living victims of the Great War, that Keats and Stevenson, far from representing isolated instances of achievement despite bodily infirmities, are but members of a gallant army, some of whom have reached even greater heights in spite of more painful disabilities. . I intent therefore to confine myself to those giants of the past who have suffered either from disease, mutilation or constitutional debility." - "Health and Strength" pages 10-11. "I have known hundreds of invalids more or less saintly, but I have had personal friendship with only two completely joyous, triumphant ones - Robert Louis Stevenson and Helen Keller. If "one with God is a majority" then two such conqering human creatures as these furnish inspiration for our generation, and Mrs Everett in her eager search has found hundreds of similar examples. For that reason I call this a unique, gallant, courageous, helpful little book, likely to give pluck and spirit to many readers handicapped by various ills!" - Introduction by Kate Douglas Wiggin. An uncommon, rather unique book, expanded from an essay, that is both a series of listings of disabled successful people in various categories and well as an inspiration to those mutilated during World War One, and others suffering physical disabilities. Contents: Introduction by Kate Douglas Wiggin; I Health and Strength; II Soldiers and a Sailor; III Ill-Health and its Relation to Genius; IV Among the Poets "They Learn in Suffering what they Teach in Song"; V Novelists; VI Physical Perfection and its Relation to Civilization; VII The Physically Handicapped Philosophers; VIII Astronomers and Mathematicians; IX Statesmen and Politicians; X The Freedom of Ill-Health; XI Artists; XII Musicians; XIII Three Physicians, a Naturalist and a Chemist; XIV Inventors; XV Historians and Men of Letters; XVI Protestant Reformers; XVII The Saints; XVIII Pain, the Great Teacher. ; Ex-Library; 105 pages.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a compelling argument that illness and physical limitations have not hampered, but rather often fueled, the achievements of great individuals throughout history. The author delves into the lives of prominent figures in various fields ââ â from soldiers and sailors t…o poets, novelists, philosophers, scientists, and statesmen ââ â to demonstrate that physical imperfections did not prevent them from reaching the pinnacle of their respective domains. The book explores a fascinating contradiction in the history of human accomplishment: while society typically values strength and physical perfection, many of the most celebrated figures throughout history have overcome significant physical challenges to achieve greatness. The author examines the ways in which illness and disability fostered focus, resilience, and the development of unique perspectives that ultimately contributed to their achievements. Ultimately, this book challenges our conventional assumptions about the nature of genius and the role of physical well-being in achieving greatness. It offers a fresh and thought-provoking perspective on the interplay of the body and the mind, highlighting the potential for human triumph even in the face of adversity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
