Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Ladies College School Examiner: Containing Six Hundred Questions Upon Literature, Ancient and Modern History, Geography, Biography, Mythology, and Natural Philosophy, With One Hundred Subjects for Themes
During several years spent in teaching, the compiler of this little work has experienced the need of an ex croise book Which embraced a Wide range of subjects, and which was not of too elementary a nature to meet the wants of advanced pupils.
The compiler has found the questions and subjects for themes contained in this book very useful in the instruction of her own pupils, and she hopes that they may afford as much help to other teachers. Instead of classifying the questions under their respective heads, it has been found advisable to collect them in groups which present as much variety as possible; the frequent change of subject producing greater readiness of mind and tending to sustain the interest of the pupil.
The arrangement, the questions upon literature, and the introduction of subjects for themes are, it is believed, entirely novel features.
