Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Disciplined Youth: Necessary for the Duties of Middle Life and the Comfort of Old Age
It is here assumed that young persons, a few excepted that are prematurely worthless, all anticipate a time, when they shall mingle in the busy scenes of the world, not as mere men and women, or as spectators at a show, but to act their several parts as husbands, wives, and parents, as rulers and teachers; a time when they shall share in its enterprises and honours, no longer humble imitators, but themselves models; not the servants, but the masters of opinion; and not impelled by, but directing, the spirit of the age.
