Lyndon
Author: Harriet F. Fisher
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 9780752409153
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Lyndon is a town of hills and meadows in a corner of Vermont known as the Northeast Kingdom. The falls on the river that runs through town were the source of mill power for the early settlers, and later became the power source of electricity. Lyndonville, the new village, grew from the railroad, and became the town's active center. The people of Lyndon have always been indomitable. They stared, only for a moment, at the ashes of thirty-six business establishments and then rebuilt immediately, only to rebuild again in another thirty years when flames struck once more. They would also survive the flood of 1927, a railroad strike, the Depression, and the end of the railroad era. Amidst all this, the people of Lyndon kept their high spirits, enjoying fairs, horse racing, parades, band concerts, and sports. Clubs and organizations served community needs and created opportunities for both community service and social functions.

Tales from Kentucky One-Room School Teachers
Author: William Lynwood Montell
Publisher: University Press of Kentucky
ISBN: 081312980X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 301
Book Description
In an educational era defined by large school campuses and overcrowded classrooms, it is easy to overlook the era of one-room schools, when teachers filled every role, including janitor, and provided a familylike atmosphere in which children also learned from one another. In Tales from Kentucky One-Room School Teachers, William Lynwood Montell reclaims an important part of Kentucky's social, cultural, and educational heritage, assembling a fun and fascinating collection of schoolroom stories that chronicle a golden era in Kentucky. The firsthand narratives and anecdotes in this collection cover topics such as teacher-student relationships, day-to-day activities, lunchtime foods, students' personal relationships, and, of course, the challenges of teaching in a one-room school. Montell includes tales about fund-raising pie suppers, pranks, outrageous student behavior (such as the quiet little boy whose first "sharing" involved profanity), and variety of other topics. Montell even includes some of his own memories from his days as a pupil in a one-room school. Tales from Kentucky One-Room School Teachers is a delightful glimpse of the history of education.
