Excerpt from Graded Schools in the United States of AmericaTravelling from the Atlantic to the Pacific, as far north as Montreal and as far south as St. Louis, I felt again and again that to know American Education would need more years of study than I had months in which to see and to hear. A Western State I found to be a different country from an Eastern State, the former seemed bound by no traditions, governed by no conventionalities, narrowed or hampered by no class feeling, whether as regards people or work, and as necessity is the mother of invention, so a new State evidently must be the parent of fresh experiment in every profession, business, or trade.The whole country is so huge, the possibilities so enormous, and the resulting conditions so diverse, that beyond the broad principles of government which underlie the organizations of education, I have found it impossible to give generalizations.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
