Excerpt from George Meek: Bath Chair-Man <p>Now, what of this man who has found within himself the will and the equipment to tell such a story as there is in this volume? <p>I think the thing that will strike the reader first and most continuously is Mr. Meek's extraordinary inefficiency in all the practical activities of life. <p>Handicapped by partial blindness and physical weakness, a limited education, a disordered and squalid childhood, lack of instruction in any money earning employment, his life-story as here revealed is one long and monotonously regular record of his dismissals from every employment which he managed to secure. <p>About the Publisher <p>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
