Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: 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 physically 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.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A highly regarded author of the 'The Golden Age of Supernatural Fiction'.Although this author wrote under the pen-name of Theo Douglas she was in fact a British woman- Henrietta Dorothy Everett. Born in 1851, she was the daughter of an offi cer of the Royal Marines. In 1869 she married Edward Everett, a solicitor. Her writing career began when she was 44 years old and over the following quarter of a century she wrote 22 books. Several of her novels were historical, set during the French Revolution and Napoleonic periods, but at least 50% of her literary output concerned the supernatural and fantastic, a genre which very popular among readers of her time and in which female authors were acknowledged to be exceptional exponents. The highly regarded novella, 'Iras: A Mystery', written in 1896, concerning a re-animated Egyptian mummy is included in this special Leonaur edition which also includes her ghostly short story collection. There can be no higher praise attributed to Everett's work than that it came under the incisive gaze and assessment of M.R. James-an undisputed master of supernatural fi ction. His own very reserved views of the works of other authors in the genre could be on occasion cutting, but of H.D.Everett's efforts he wrote, 'a quieter tone on the whole, but with some excellently conceived stories'-so a worthy encomium, indeed! Mrs. Everett died in 1923. Readers will also discover, 'Fingers of a Hand', 'A Water Witch', The Wind of Dunowe' and many other engaging stories in these pages Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.
