PREFACE
This book, unique when it appeared in 1976, is still unique and therefore serves an important purpose for understanding deaf people and deaf culture. When it was first published, Gallaudet University did not have a university press; now it does and we are pleased that Gallaudet University Press decided to re-issue our book, newly tailored and spiffed-up for its reintroduction to the world. We hope that you will enjoy reading the stories of the deaf characters; we ourselves have known the characters for so long that they seem not mere characters but old friends.
