Description
| Summary: | "William Torrey Harris, whose intimate friendship I enjoyed for a long generation, was an outstanding mind in the history of our American life. His contributions to philosophy and to the theory and practice of education were not only numerous, but of commanding importance. He was so fortunate as to add to the mind of a scholar and statesman the ability to make clear and simple the doctrines which he taught. It was this which gave to Dr. Harris his commanding influence over the teaching profession during his long years of active leadership in all which related to its thought and work. The history of American education and of our American contributions to philosophical thought cannot be understood or estimated without knowledge of the life work of Dr. William Torrey Harris"--Foreword.
