Household Education
Harriet Martineau
A household is a school whether it means to be or not. Harriet Martineau's 1849 classic treats the family as the great educator, with chapters on what schooling is for, the natural possessions of man, the golden mean and the newcomer in the cradle. One of England's foremost writers on the education happening at the hearth. Family life, thought through.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
