Editorial Review
Wheels of Courage is a powerful and inspiring book that tells the stories of the young men who, after returning from WWII with spinal cord injuries, pioneered wheelchair sports and fought for disability rights. The book showcases their determination, persistence, and the lasting impact they had on the disabled community. David Davis has done a phenomenal job in uncovering hidden facts about the origins of wheelchair sports while making it an engaging read. This is a must-read for anyone looking to learn about the triumph of the human spirit.
