Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of Eliza Baylies Wheaton: A Chapter in the History of the Higher Education of Women The love of the Alumnæ of Wheaton Seminary for their dear old friend has led to the preparation of this "Life of Mrs. Wheaton." In presenting it to the public, it is felt that there is need to invoke all the gentleness of the gentle reader, if we would hope that its imperfections may be forgiven. In a certain sense, it is a family affair written by and for the "thousand daughters" of Mrs. Wheaton. It has, therefore, seemed admissible to use much material that to a reader outside the family might seem redundant, or uninteresting. Many parts of the book are not unlike a talk on family matters by members of the family. For instance, this has seemed a fitting place to pay tribute to some of the really great teachers of Wheaton Seminary, who were all Mrs. Wheaton´s intimate friends. Some of the greatest of these passed on so long ago that we have no record of them. Of some of the very greatest only a few words have been allowed; for it is felt that it would be out of place to say much of those still living.
