SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"George M. Teegarden (1852-1936) taught at the Western Pennyslvania School for the Deaf for 48 years, established the printing department, and also served as the first editor of the school's magazine. Despite these significant contributions, his greatest gift to deaf people was his skill as a writer and poet who was deaf, as readers will discover in this collection."--Jacket.
