Description: Language for Meaning (1941-43) by Paul McKee, M. Lucile Harrison, and Annie McCowen Publisher: Houghton Mifflin Grade Level: 2-6 Developed at the request of the head of the Educational Division of Houghton Mifflin, this set was a "dramatic departure" from the typical elementary English textbook in that it was organized by "language jobs" that integrated grammar and writing toward an applied end product. Despite the derision for its unusual size, larger than most textbooks, and two column format, it achieved 85% of the language arts textbook market (Miller, p. 1215). Annie McCowen was present in Georgia at the announcement of this textbook being on her home state's approved textbook list in 1941. It was adopted for use in Alberta, Canada from 1945-1961 and in Texas from 1953-67. This is a used textbook so it is dirty and shows some wear but what a great piece of history. Thanks
