About this title

Synopsis

Explore a historic argument for state duty in education and its lasting impact on public schooling.

This nonfiction address analyzes why a broad, practical education matters for citizens and how a state can shape its schools to strengthen the body politic.

In clear, accessible language, the speaker discusses the origins of New York’s university system, the balance between practical and liberal studies, and the role of teachers. The text argues for comprehensive, compulsory schooling, thoughtful subject choices, and the importance of competent, permanent teachers in building a strong republic.

Why education stands as a national priority after war and upheaval.
Principles for designing a public school curriculum that mixes practical skills with broader knowledge.
The case for stable teaching careers and fair compensation to attract quality educators.
Historical context for the development of New York’s higher education system and its lasting influence.

Ideal for readers of history, public policy, and education reform who want a window into 19th‑century arguments influencing modern schooling.

We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence.
