Description

Dr. Jean Andrews' story of Leroy Colombo is an engrossing biographical tale about a deaf man succeeding during an era when disabled people were largely shunned. Colombo chose a life that allowed him to excel in saving lives as a lifeguard and winning swimming contests. Andrews deftly sets up scenarios that explain why Colombo's remarkable feats resulted in his being beloved and never ignored in the beach community of Galveston, Texas during his lifetime. This is a good read.
