Synopsis

This book captures the experiences of a close-knit group of students and the staff of their small teacher training school in rural Massachusetts in the early decades of the 20th century. It is a tribute to the impact the school, its teachers and their dedication to public education has on the lives of these young women. It is also a reflection of the times, and the many changes the world was undergoing during that era. The students struggled with great societal changes, such as the role of young women in society, while the author examined important topics including public education, women's rights, and the industrial revolution. Ultimately, the book reveals the power of community and the importance of educators in shaping the future.
