520			_a"Mallonga biografio de Henry Fawcett la blinda ĉefpoŝtestro de Anglujo by Holt." is a short biography, likely written for young readers in the early 20th century. The book traces the life of Henry Fawcett, a blind British statesman, highlighting his determination, public service, and reforms as Postmaster General. The narrative opens in Salisbury, threading the cathedral’s organ and surrounding landscapes through Fawcett’s childhood, his lively school years, love of animals and sport, and his growing ambition to become a statesman. After excelling in mathematics at Cambridge, a hunting accident left him completely blind; he resolved to continue his path, embracing new pleasures like music, skating, and fishing, while relying on steadfast family support. He wrote on political economy, became a Fellow at Cambridge, married an able partner who assisted his work, and built a public career advocating education for the poor, religious equality, and public access to parks and commons. Elected to Parliament, he championed Indian interests and practical social reforms. As Postmaster General, he expanded parcel post, promoted postal savings and insurance, strengthened telegraph services, advanced government oversight of telephones, and opened more roles to women. The book closes with his early death, national mourning, memorials in Westminster Abbey and Salisbury, and a clear moral: through courage and service, one can always press forward “to the light.” (This is an automatically generated summary.)
