About this Item
Size: 12mo <7 3/4". 103 pp. Binding firm, spine worn. Edges browned. Ex-library, with minimal stamps and markings. Covers slightly creased and worn. In this book Iwahashi (1898-1954) writes about coping with his blindness and about his Christian faith. Iwahashi, considered the Helen Keller of Japan, became blind while a student at Waseda University and began printing Braille books from his home. He then opened his house to lend books to blind people free of charge. In 1935 he established the Nippon Lighthouse in Abeno-ku, Osaka, Japan. He and Helen Keller were close friends and both were, obviously, successful advocates for the blind in their respective countries. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 250 grams.
