Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Horace Mann Educator, Patriot and Reformer: A Study in Leadership The decision to undertake this work was not a hasty one. When I was teaching a village school in Ohio, a copy of Horace Mann´s inaugural address at Antioch College fell into my hands. I read it again and again until it passed into my mental constitution as particles of iron pass into the blood. I entered Antioch College because it was supposed to embody Mr. Mann´s ideals. Later, as a member of the faculty of Antioch College, I read a paper before the State College Association on "Horace Mann in Ohio". The study for this paper led me to the choice of this subject for my doctor´s dissertation at Columbia University. The mystic personality drew me on, and Mr. George C. Mann, of Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, turned over to me his father´s manuscripts, private letters, and all material in his hands which promised to be of any service in this work. For more than six years this matter has been with me, and, in the intervals of the busy life of an educator, I have carried forward the life story. New material has come to me from many quarters, and I have gathered much from those who knew Mr. Mann in Massachusetts and in Ohio.
