Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from What Is It to Be Educated?
But that earlier hope has not been realized. Yet there seems to me a genuine need for just such a book; and if I may judge from the continued sale of Educa tion and the Larger Life, there is also a demand. I have therefore decided, before old age comes, to attempt such a sequel; and that is, very brie?y, the raison d'étre and purpose of the present book. It is my desire to be as concrete and practical as I can possibly be. I want to be of material, genuine help to both parents and teachers, and this, not only in the matter of aiding them to avoid out-and-out mistakes in the upbringing of the children whom Providence has, perhaps rashly.
