My Faithful Goodwin

J.J. Goodwin originally met Swami Vivekananda as a hired stenographer, a very expensive court reporter whose job was to record Vivekananda's rapidly spoken talks. Within one week, he refused to accept payment. This is his story.

An honest and interesting biography of J.J. Goodwin that not only tells his story and his interactions with Swami Vivekananda, but sheds light on the world of the Vedanta movement in 1900.
