Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Redemption of Arthur True: A Rural School Story
The little volume which Mr. Bratten issues under the title, The Redemption of Arthur True, is a distinct and important contribution to pedagogical fiction. Under the guise of entertaining narrative, as has been the wont of so many who have had great messages to Convey, Mr. Bratten makes an eloquent appeal for better rural schools. The simple, accurate, and particularly Vivid picture of school conditions in Illinois as'the author has observed them is not so much a matter of fiction as it is actual history, and very modern history, -too.
