Summary

Looking beyond the white cane...

Heather M. Dakin has been legally blind since birth, but that hasn’t stopped her from making the most of life. Observations of a Blind Magician chronicles Heather’s journey - from becoming a white-cane user and later a guide-dog traveler, to her move from the United States to the United Kingdom in 2009. From the famed city of New Orleans, through rural Pennsylvania and Maryland, and finally, to England, she highlights the challenges blind and visually impaired individuals face in various arenas of life with a touch of good-natured humor.

Her story offers a new perspective on a world that few individuals ever get to see. So come, take a peek behind the curtain and discover how you, too, could make a truly magical contribution to those living with sight loss.
