Description

Excerpt from Our Common Schools: A Fuller Statement of the Views Set Forth in the Pamphlet Entitled, Our Common-School Education A stranger, traveling through New England, marks with not a little sur prise the multitude of school-houses appearing everywhere at little distances. Familiarized as I am to the sight, they have excited no small interest in my mind, particularly as I was traveling through the settlements recently begun. Here, while the inhabitants were still living in log huts, they had not only erected school-houses for their children, but had built them in a neat style, so as to throw an additional appearance of deformity over their own clumsy habitations. This attachment to education in New England is universal, and the situation of that hamlet must be bad indeed which, if it contain a sufficient number of children for a school, does not provide the necessary accommoda tions. In 1803 I found neat school-houses in Colebrook and Stewart, bordering on the Canadian line. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
