Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early New England Schools The object of this book is not so much to furnish the author's opinions and conclusions, as to furnish the material from which the reader may form his own opinions and conclusions. With this in view, much is given directly from the old records, retaining the quaint phraseology and construction but modernizing the spelling for greater ease in reading. The order is that of the logical development of the schools through their various transition periods, with such excerpts from the laws as show the growth in legal power. The motive for the work lies in the following statement in Mr. George H. Martin's preface to his book, "The Evolution of the Massachusetts School System." He says, "This book is not a history..., for such a work the materials are ample and only await the approach of some one who has time and the inclination to use them." The curiosity aroused by that statement led to the first record, that to the second, until curiosity became a disease. However, this is not a history, but rather the materials out of which history may be made. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Andover Hill: Life Today in an Old New England School Many American preparatory schools draw their students chiefly from one section; Phillips Academy, however, has always been national in its membership and outlook Among its early patrons were not only Lowells and Quincys from Massachusetts, but Washingtons and Lees from Virginia. Its latest catalogue lists boys from more than forty states and from twelve foreign countries. There can't be much provinciality in a community in which a lad from Buffalo may room with the son of a Georgia planter, Sit down to dinner beside a native of Siam, and play football opposite a classmate from Seattle or San Francisco On one Andover eleven not long ago each member was from a different State.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Old New England School: A History of Phillips Academy Andover In the preparation of this book material has been gathered from many sources, a large part of them documentary. Fully two hundred graduates of the school have generously sent anecdotes and reminiscences of their days on the Hill. I am especially indebted to Dr. William A. Mowry for the loan of a collection of papers relating to Dr. Taylor's administration; and to Miss Agnes and Miss Gertrude Brooks of North Andover, for permission to investigate the correspondence of various members of the Phillips family in their possession. Mr. Markham W. Stackpole, with whom I have frequently consulted, has read my manuscript entire and has offered a great deal of valuable criticism. To Dr. Alfred E. Stearns, Mr. Alfred L. Ripley, and Professor James Hardy Ropes, each of whom has taken the trouble to read the volume, I am grateful for important suggestions. Among the others who have gone over various chapters and have aided me by their advice are Mr. James C. Sawyer, Professor Henry P. Wright, Professor Charles H. Forbes, the Reverend C. C. Carpenter, Mr. George T. Eaton, and Mr. Laurence M. Crosbie, of Exeter, New Hampshire. My wife has had such a large share in the planning of the book that it is useless to attempt to express my gratitude to her.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the State Normal School, Farmington, Maine: With Sketches The publication of this history has been undertaken for a threefold purpose: first, to preserve records that it would have been impossible to secure in a few years; secondly, to show how important a place the School has filled, and is filling, in the educational work of the State; and, thirdly, to create a new interest among the gradu ates for the School and for one another, by strengthening the ties of those early, school-day friendships that have grown weak by time and distance, and the cares and burdens of life.
