Inhaltsangabe

""It is with a kind of fear that I begin to write the history of my life. I have, as it were, a superstitious hesitation in lifting the veil that clings about my childhood like a golden mist. The task of writing an autobiography is a difficult one. When I try to classify my earliest impressions, I find that fact and fancy look alike across the years that link the past with the present. "" -- Excerpt Before she was two years old, scarlet fever destroyed Helen Keller's sight and hearing. At seven, alone and withdrawn, she was rescued by Anne Sullivan, her teacher and friend. She learned to read (in several different languages) and speak so well that she graduated with honors in 1904 from Radcliffe, where she authored The Story of My Life. Keller devoted her life to social reform and campaigned in 35 countries on behalf of the handicapped. The foundations that she established continue to help the deaf and blind throughout the world. ""Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing"" -- Helen Keller
