Summary
Lydia Howard Huntley Sigourney (1791-1865) of Hartford, Connecticut, was an internationally known poet in her day, the author of fifty-six books, and some two thousand articles to magazines, and supporter of deaf education, a new idea in America in her day. She was the first person to teach Alice Cosgrove, the deaf student who inspired Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet to open the first school for deaf students in America. This book focuses on Sigourney's experience in the nascent American Deaf Community through her poems and prose pieces.
