Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Memory of Edward Thring
This work is not a Biography of Edward Thring. It deals only with one main aspect of his career, during one period of it. It is what its title pro fesses - a Memory the memory of a single observer, unhelped by any materials beyond the few letters and memoranda which are in his own possession.
But it is the memory of Edward Thring owned by one who for seven years was a boy in his school, and for five a pupil in his class; who for fourteen years was a worker at his side, in ties of nearest intimacy; and who has held this memorial to be a debt upon his future powers, since the evening when his great master bent over a young boy's rhyme, and said, You shall write my epitaph.
