Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of speeches and letters concerning educational policy in Georgia following the Civil War. The author, concerned with the state of education, argues that the state should prioritize funding for common schools, rather than colleges, as this will benefit a greater number of students and help to equalize educational opportunities across the state. The author argues that prior attempts to fund educational institutions through donations and other funds have failed and that a concerted effort must be made to ensure the education of all Georgia's children, concluding that such an effort would lead not only to a better educated populace but also to increased social cohesion, prosperity, and a more enlightened electorate.
