A Dominie's Log is a book written by Alexander S. Neill and first published in 1915. The book is a collection of Neill's experiences as a schoolteacher in Scotland during the early 20th century. Neill was known for his progressive educational philosophy, which emphasized the importance of individualism, creativity, and self-expression in the classroom. In A Dominie's Log, Neill shares his observations and reflections on his time as a teacher, including his interactions with students, parents, and fellow educators. He also discusses his efforts to implement his progressive ideas in the classroom, such as allowing students to pursue their own interests and encouraging them to think critically and independently. The book is divided into short chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of Neill's experiences as a teacher. Some of the topics he covers include discipline, the role of parents in education, the importance of play, and the challenges of teaching in a rural community. Overall, A Dominie's Log provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of early 20th-century education, as well as an inspiring example of a teacher who was willing to challenge traditional methods and embrace new ideas.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
