Helpful Score: 1

This was an excellent book on some major events in Deaf culture and the history of the Lexington School for the Deaf in New York. Ms. Cohen acts as narrator and translator throughout the book and talks about the shift the school goes through from being strictly an oral school, to developing their manual curriculum and all the controversies in between the two. A definate eye-opener for those who are not familiar with Deaf history, culture and lifestyles.
