About this title

Synopsis

""English As She Is Taught"" is a book written by Caroline Bigelow Le Row in 1887. It is a collection of genuine and humorous answers given by students in public schools in response to examination questions. The book is divided into chapters covering different topics such as geography, history, grammar, and literature. The answers provided by the students are often incorrect but are presented in a lighthearted manner, providing a glimpse into the education system of the late 19th century. The book serves as both a humorous read and a commentary on the state of education during the time period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
