SAMUEL THOMAS GREENE:
A Legend in the nineteenth century deaf community

~ ON SALE NOW! ~


Samuel Thomas Greene, born in 1843, grew up in Maine, attended North America’s first permanent and publicly supported school for deaf children, in Hartford, Connecticut, and the world’s first degree-granting college for deaf students, in Washington, D.C. Later, he became an accomplished teacher in Canada at a provincial school for the deaf in Belleville, Ontario. He was a multitalented man who made significant contributions to the development of the nineteenth century Deaf Community. Despite several stone edifices and other memorials that mark his existence, not a single book about him has been written—until now.

This book documents Greene’s life, providing an archival story that includes a selection of his original school compositions, letters, writings, and speeches along with a broad selection of photographs and other documented materials of interest. It will help preserve Greene’s legacy for many generations and will be a resource for future writers to expand on to further share his extraordinary story. This biography also is a valuable addition to the growing collection of Deaf profiles that readers can enjoy.
