Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Education of the People, Our Weak Points and Our Strength, Occasional Essays
The following chapters contain the substance of papers written from time to time for special purposes on subjects connected with Education. They pretend to no completeness. Their only merit, if any, is, that they convey the fresh impressions of one who was daily occupied in the examination of school children.
I was appointed to an inspectorship of schools in is49, and resigned it in 1864. Five years of comparative leisure have since given me the opportunity, not only of taking stock, as it were, of my fifteen years' experience as an inspector, but also of testing some of my conclusions in the care of a country parish. A brief summary of these conclusions will form, per haps, the best preface to this volume.
