By Ennis Richmond

Book Overview

""Boyhood: A Plea For Continuity In Education"" is a non-fiction book written by Ennis Richmond, originally published in 1898. The book advocates for a more holistic approach to education that takes into account the unique needs and experiences of boys. Richmond argues that traditional educational methods are often too rigid and fail to foster creativity, curiosity, and a love of learning. Instead, he suggests that educators should focus on creating a nurturing and supportive environment that encourages boys to explore their interests and develop their talents. Throughout the book, Richmond draws on his own experiences as a teacher and mentor to illustrate his points. He also provides practical advice for parents and educators on how to create a more effective and engaging learning environment. Topics covered in the book include the importance of physical activity and outdoor play, the role of literature and the arts in education, and the need for strong male role models. ""Boyhood: A Plea For Continuity In Education"" is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities of educating young boys. It remains relevant today, more than a century after its initial publication, and is a must-read for anyone interested in education, child development, or gender studies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
