Text block white, clean and unmarked except for prior owner attributions on front free endpapers. "It is certainly strange that every State in the Union maintains a system of public schools for the purpose of training citizens, and that the course of study in so many States omits civil govenment, the science of citizenship...Every school should teach, and every child should study, the principles of our government." Remarkable condition for its age.
