520    "Howard L. Terry wrote a novel between 1917 and 1919, 
       which he donated to the Gallaudet University Archives in 
       1949. There it rested until a resurgence of interest in 
       Deaf literature led to its recent rediscovery. Mickey's 
       Harvest: A Novel of a Deaf Boy's Checkered Life recounts 
       the rollicking tale of a young deaf boy and how he learned
       to survive and thrive at the advent of the 20th century. 
       Mickey Dunmore's story begins with the sinking of his 
       father's merchant sailing ship and ends with a cliffhanger
       in World War I. In school, after an illness caused his 
       deafness, Mickey finds himself constantly fighting the 
       hearing boys and later competing with the signing students
       when he attends a residential school for deaf students. In
       college, he and his best friend Dick Wagner leave early to
       travel the nation with the hobos, carnies, and grifters. 
       In one town, they outfox a barker who was using a deaf 
       girl to "read" the minds of their marks. Further on, they 
       meet Bunny, the Mighty Mite deaf man who helps expose a 
       hearing woman posing as deaf to scam sympathetic people. 
       Mickey faces his greatest challenge when he falls in love 
       with Marion Carrel, a deaf girl whose hearing father 
       forbids their romance on eugenics grounds. Terry, who 
       became deaf at the age of 11, states from the outset that 
       he means for his novel to reveal the biases confronting 
       deaf people at the time. As a tonic, he populates Mickey's
       Harvest with artistic, talented deaf individuals who 
       engage readers in an earlier, colorful time as they "show 
       their stuff."--|cProvided by publisher.
