Description
My Schools And Schoolmasters: Or The Story Of My Education is a memoir written by Hugh Miller, a Scottish geologist and writer. The book details Miller's experiences in various schools and with different schoolmasters throughout his childhood and early adulthood. Miller begins by describing his early education in a small village school, where he was taught by a stern and unyielding teacher. He then moves on to his experiences in a larger grammar school, where he encountered a more enlightened and engaging teacher who fostered his love of literature and science. Throughout the book, Miller reflects on the various challenges he faced in his education, including poverty, illness, and social isolation. He also discusses the importance of self-education and the role that books and libraries played in his intellectual development. In addition to his personal story, Miller also provides a broader commentary on the state of education in Scotland during the 19th century. He critiques the rigid and authoritarian teaching methods of many schoolmasters, while also acknowledging the importance of discipline and structure in the classroom. Overall, My Schools And Schoolmasters is a fascinating and insightful look at one man's journey through the education system of 19th century Scotland, and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of education or the life of Hugh Miller.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
