Song in a Rainstorm: The Story of Musical Prodigy Thomas Blind Tom Wiggins (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780807509418)

A celebration of a remarkable, overlooked musical great.

Born blind into a life of slavery, Thomas Wiggins was dismissed as a "useless burden." But through the loving protection of his family, he went on to become one of the greatest musicians of his time. From Tom's childhood on a plantation to his performances in the concert halls of Europe, Glenda Armand shares the beautiful and at times heartbreaking story of a long-overlooked musical great, the love that supported him, and the struggle for freedom.
