The most influential books in the history of American education,
The McGuffey Readers not only taught reading skills and classic
literature but also imparted idealized middle class virtues to
millions of schoolchildren. This anthology organizes more than
eighty selections from all six volumes of the 1879 edition into
twelve thematic chapters, making it possible for readers to examine
the cultural assumptions that permeated middle America in the
nineteenth century. A general introduction places the books in
their historical context and provides background information on the
life and career of their compiler, William Holmes McGuffey. Helpful
editorial features include chapter introductions, a chronology,
questions for consideration, a bibliography, illustrations from the
1879 edition, and an index.
