Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

1928. The story of Thomas Arnold, headmaster of Rugby school, where
he brought about many changes. Mathematics, modern languages, and
modern history were added to the traditional classical curriculum,
the monitorial system was introduced, and independent thought was
encouraged. Arnold's reforms were influential beyond Rugby itself;
his changes were adopted by most of the English secondary schools.
Through the medium of his weekly sermons to his students in Rugby
Chapel, Arnold inculcated the Christian principles and ideals that
formed the core of his own religious convictions. An effective
preacher, Arnold was an excellent classical scholar and historian
as well.
