Excerpt from The Educational Views
The history of education in the United States has yet to be written - and the first big step in the process is the completion of a series of the educational history of the individual states. The present study is a contribution to the history of education in the State of New York, during the period of foundations, or rather, during the period of the transformation of the English colonial character - and consequently education - to a distinctly American one. This study centers about the rich personality of one of New York's greatest sons - De Witt Clinton. His educational significance has received very slight recognition from his biographers. Though he is not mentioned in either of the histories of education in the United States, and though mentioned, is not adequately treated, in any of the histories of education in New York State this study establishes, we believe, the claim that Clinton should be ranked with Mann and Barnard in a trinity of educational leadership in the United States. Preceding the study of De Witt Clinton, there is, by way of introduction, a statement of the physical, social and educational conditions in the State of New York from 1783 to 1805.
The student of the educational history of Massachusetts is, in general, oppressed by the wealth of material. It would seem that whenever any one did anything educationally, there was a fellow-townsman nearby to record his work, or else he himself took the time later to record it. Consequently, the educational history of Massachusetts is, at present, the most complete.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This significant historical study delves into the nuanced role played by education in shaping the identity of the United States from its era as a collection of British colonies to the formation of the nation as we know it. A vital, multifaceted portrait of the educational landscape is painted in this work. Schools during this period were primarily religious institutions and were not particularly numerous. The lack of widespread, accessible education, coupled with inadequate transportation infrastructure, and the scarcity of newspapers, impacted literacy in the young nation. Nonetheless, the author finds that the push for secularization grew and was indicative of broader social shifts and changes in perception, particularly as it related to poverty. As the nation grew and solidified its institutions, the role of education and the recognition of the impact of the lack thereof became more apparent. This book captures the complexities of the era with insights that are every bit as relevant to the present day.
