Sent blind soon after birth David Hume stubbornly refused to live the limited life well-meaning elders and social norms expected. ’I do not wake in the morning and regret I’m blind. No, I wake and look to another win in a busy life.’ To date, that encompasses years in a blind institute, two marriages, grieving for two outstanding wives, founding recruiting firms, devising marketing techniques, facing business collapse, sailing ocean races and through much of it, being the lead singer in popular bands. If you enjoy a short biography that inspires, saddens, cheers and sticks in your memory, then don’t put aside Blind Without Barriers.This eloquently written memoir is about sheer determination, resilience, and the courage to overcome the odds. It’s also about a man who refused to accept that a ’normal life’ was beyond his reach.
