Synopsis

This memoir uncovers the largely unwritten 20th-century history of Wisconsin's organized movement to secure the rights of people with physical disabilities. Authors Wahner and Logan faithfully trace the work of strong leaders like Ellen Daly, Dan Johnson, and Edith Simons. They, and many other "giants" blazed trails of change and reform.

As a result, Wisconsin emerged as a national leader in advancing community-based, independence-promoting, rights-based systemic and sustainable reform-long before the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in 1990. In an era hungry for heroes and role models, many are found in this carefully researched book.
