Aprašymas

An account of the remarkable and inspirational life of pioneering lawyer Adrian Battcock, a man who refused to let tragedy define him.

At thirty-one, Adrian Battcock suffered an accident that left him paralyzed from the neck down. Facing daunting physical and emotional challenges, he remained determined to build a meaningful life. The Lawyer Who Couldn't Write delves into Adrian's life history, from his birth in Brigus South in 1935 to the decade he spent at Mount Cashel orphanage after his father's death, and from the hardship of his youth to the circumstances of his accident. This biography explores the many barriers that Adrian shattered on his way to becoming the first quadriplegic in North America to graduate from law school, and details a life spent championing accessibility, inclusivity, and the rights of people with disabilities.
