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 turn of the twentieth century. Howard L. 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 that 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."
