About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Home Education: a Course of Lectures to Ladies by Charlotte Mason. Read in English by LibriVox Volunteers. In proposing these lectures, my original notion was to popularize and amplify the valuable educational hints contained in some two or three chapters of Dr. Carpenter's "Mental Physiology;" but the subject is a wide one, and I have found it necessary to cover much ground untouched in that work. A complete or worthy treatment of "Home Education" within the limits of a single small volume is out of the question. My attempt is, to suggest a method of education resting upon a basis of natural law: and to touch, in this connection, upon the mother's duties to her children in the three stages of life during which they fall under her personal training, childhood, school-life, and young maidenhood. - Summary by Introductory
