American Book Company, 1909 - 64 sayfa
This is a reprint of the 1909 edition. William McGuffey (1800-1873), American educator, author, and Presbyterian minister created the McGuffey Readers, the first widely used textbooks in the U.S. beginning in 1836, while his brother Alexander created the fifth and sixth readers in the 1840s. In 1879, the readers were revised to better portray America as a melting pot of moralities and middle-class values. The McGuffey Readers are among the best known schoolbooks in the history of American education.
