The book History Of Higher Education In Maine is a comprehensive account of the development of higher education in the state of Maine, written by Edward Winslow Hall and originally published in 1903. The book covers the period from the early 19th century to the turn of the 20th century, and provides detailed information on the establishment and growth of various colleges and universities in Maine.The book begins with an overview of the state's educational landscape in the early 19th century, when there were very few institutions of higher learning in the region. It then goes on to describe the founding of Bowdoin College in 1794, which was the first college in Maine and played a key role in the development of higher education in the state.The book then provides a detailed account of the establishment and growth of other colleges and universities in Maine, including Colby College, Bates College, and the University of Maine. It also covers the development of various professional schools, such as the Maine Medical School and the Portland School of Law.Throughout the book, Hall provides insights into the social and cultural context of higher education in Maine, including the role of religion, politics, and economics in shaping the development of these institutions. He also discusses the challenges and controversies that these institutions faced over the years, such as debates over curriculum, funding, and admission policies.Overall, History Of Higher Education In Maine is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of education in the United States, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the development of higher education in one of the country's most historically rich and culturally significant regions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
