Allegheny: A Century of Education 1815 to 1915 is a historical account of the development of education in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, from the early 19th century to the early 20th century. Written by Ernest Ashton Smith, the book explores the evolution of educational institutions in the region, including the establishment of schools, colleges, and universities. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different period in Allegheny's educational history. The first chapter discusses the early years of education in the county, including the establishment of the first schools and the challenges faced by educators in the frontier region. Subsequent chapters cover the growth of public education in the county, the establishment of private schools and colleges, and the impact of the Civil War and other historical events on education in the region. Throughout the book, Smith provides detailed information about the people and institutions that shaped Allegheny's educational landscape. He also discusses the various educational philosophies and methods that were popular during different periods of the county's history. Overall, Allegheny: A Century of Education 1815 to 1915 provides a comprehensive overview of the development of education in Allegheny County, making it a valuable resource for historians, educators, and anyone interested in the history of education in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
