Description

Excerpt from History of the Wesleyan Academy: At Wilbraham, Mass;; 1817-1890 To those interested in the work of education, this volume will prove valuable, as containing the record of early struggles in building a literary institution. The founding was a work of faith. The preachers of the New England Conference made a great venture. Like the patriarch, they marched into a strange land they were to possess only after many days of toil and trial. The history shows the ultimate realization of their highest expectations. As the first successful experiment of the Methodists in American education, the enterprise has an interest for all the disciples of Wesley. At Wilbraham, after many defeats and hindrances, the leaders made a stand and turned the tide of battle in favor of higher education by the church. From the day Fisk planted his foot on the soil, the work prospered and progressed. A new spirit entered the denomination, and Christian schools began to spring up, under Methodist auspices, in every part of the land. Let none of the later schools forget how much they owe to this earliest and honored institution. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
