About the Author

AUTHOR TONY GILES was born in Weston-super-Mare, southwest England in 1978. Diagnosed at a young age with Cone Dystrophy, a rare eye condition, and Photophobia, an extreme sensitivity to light, he maintained some vision until the age of approximately sixteen when he lost all sight except for his ability to sense bright sunlight. At the age of six he developed nerve sensory hearing loss that has progressively worsened over time. Despite these disabilities, Tony gained a Bachelor of Arts Degree in American Studies from University College Northampton (now The University of Northampton) in 2001 and a Master of Arts Degree in Transatlantic Studies from The University of Birmingham in 2003. He has travelled from a young age and continues to enjoy experiencing new parts of the world. His most recent journeys include trips to the USA, Sri Lanka and Iceland. Seeing The World My Way is Tony Giles' first book. He recently published its sequel: Seeing The Americas My Way. When not travelling Tony lives in Teignmouth, Devon.
