Abstract
ALL intelligent attempts to make known in this country the extent and success of American educational enterprise deserve encouragement. So well considered an effort as that of Mr. Mosely not only merited but has received enthusiastic appreciation. By securing the assistance of educationists representative of successive steps in a complete educational system, Mr. Mosely has been able to bring together in convenient compass authoritative expressions of opinion as to the precise state of each grade of education in the United States, and to provide our new educational authorities with information as to the characteristics of American education which good judges think might with advantage be copied in this country. Similarly, the features of the work of schools and colleges in the States which should be discouraged among us are in this report duly indicated. Mr. Mosely has, too, made arrangements to ensure a wide circulation for the valuable material collected under his auspices. By forwarding to: the publishers of the volume the cost of postage and stating his qualifications, any member of an educational authority, any county councillor, local manager, headmaster, or registered teacher may obtain a copy of the book free.
