Synopsis
Excerpt from Life of Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet: Founder of Deaf-Mute Instruction in America Whatever may be said in justification of the use of this term in earlier years, it is now generally condemned as altogether out of place when applied to establishments designed solely for educational purposes. Many institutions for the deaf have dropped it from their official titles as inappropriate and misleading. No schools organized within the last thirty years make use of it. It has been thought best, therefore, in the interest of a most reasonable reform, to omit it from the following pages.

The writer ventures to hope, also, that to promoters of education and benevolent effort, generally, the volume will be welcome. A word of explanation is due (or an omission which may be noticed by certain readers. The Hartford School for the Deaf has in its corporate and popular name the word "asylum."

- s***s (17)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseSeller was fine, arrived promptly with good packaging and in perfect condition. But I should have asked questions about the book. It is really just a recreation of a collection of pages from old catalogues. I was hoping for more information & history of some of the Chickering models. This was not worth $18 to me. Would have been helpful if the seller had given examples of some pages.
