Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of Lucretia Crocker and Abby W. May: Prepared for Private Circulation Lucretia Crocker was born in Barnstable, Mass., Dec. 31, 1829. I have little information regarding her childhood or girlish life. Her ancestors came early to this country, and settled in the old Commonwealth. All her influences and associations belonged to the New England type of life. We must imagine the little girl in her simple country home, trudging not "unwillingly to school," delighting in the solemn grandeur of the ocean, and loving and beloved in all her family relations. Who were the enviable teachers who helped to mould this mind so receptive and so active, I know not, until the time when she entered the Normal School. Her family had then removed to Shawmut Avenue in Boston, and she attended as a day scholar. If the adequate training given to this rare mind had been the only result of the Normal School System, it would have justified the enthusiastic expectations of its founders. But, if unequalled, she was not alone, but the centre of a group of noble and dear friends. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
