Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thirteen Essays on Education A small number of professional teachers who call themselves The Thirteen have for some time been in the habit of meeting for discussion. Thinking that some of the papers which were read at their meetings may have an interest beyond their immediate circle, they venture to publish this little book. It includes certain papers of a less technical kind which were written by members for other, though cognate, purposes, but in the first instance they are all meant for teachers. The essays are independent: each writer speaks for himself alone. Nor is it supposed that collectively the papers cover a definite field. They are arrows of the chase, scattered as such arrows are wont to be. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
