Excerpt from Silver Bells of Memory: A Brief Account of My Life, Views and Interests
To those who have formed their conception of the life of the non-sighted upon this model, the book before us will come as something of a revelation. It constitutes a monument to the powers of man's unconquerable soul, to rise superior to adverse conditions and live with zest and satisfaction a life, that to many, would seem nothing but an ample justification for sullen complaint. A discontented sighted reader will find in these pages a tonic of rare value, and will rise from perusal ashamed of his peevish discontent and with a high resolve to make the most of his life with the powers and opportunities at his command.
