About this title

Synopsis

""English As She Is Taught"" is a fascinating collection of genuine answers given by students in public schools during the late 19th century. Compiled by Caroline Bigelow Le Row, the book provides a humorous and often startling insight into the educational system of the time. The answers cover a wide range of topics, including grammar, literature, history, and science, and are often unintentionally hilarious. The book is a valuable historical document, shedding light on the educational practices of the past and providing a unique perspective on the attitudes and beliefs of students of the time. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of education, or simply looking for a good laugh.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
