Description: Old South Assn. Boston MA, 1926 (?) Fair condition hardcover, former library, binding is sound but library markings, some tape repaired pages, and other wear and tear."The Old South leaflets were prepared primarily for circulation among the attendants upon the Old South Lectures for Young People. The subjects of the Leaflets are immediately related to the subjects of the lectures, and they are intended to supplement the lectures and stimulate historical interest and inquiry among the young people. They are made up, for the most part, from original papers of the periods treated in the lectures, in the hope to make the men and the public life of the periods more clear and real." "The Old South Lectures for Young People were instituted in the summer of 1883, as a means of promoting a more serious and intelligent attention to historical studies, especially studies in American history among the young people of Boston. The success of the lectures has been so great as to warrant the hope that such courses may be sustained in many other cities of the country." (Forgotten Books). An amazingly broad and high quality selection of writings from many eras, similar to today's movement to promote and preserve "classical" education.
