Excerpt from German American Annals, 1905, Vol. 7: Continuation Of The Quarterly Americana Germanica; A Monthly Devoted To The Comparative Study Of The Historical, Literary, Linguistic, Educational And Commercial Relations Of Germany And America In this modest little pamphlet are contained the observations and reflections of the author during his official visit to America for the purpose of examining the schools and educational methods of the United States. The author has spared no pains in his work, but has taken his task seriously, and gone into the school room, and sat with teacher and student through the tedious hours of instruction. While not neglecting the higher phases of University work, he naturally laid chief stress upon college and preparatory work., His observations in the main will find the approval of teachers on both sides of the Atlantic.
