Dudley Allen Sargent: An Autobiography is a memoir written by Dudley Allen Sargent, an American physical educator and founder of the Harvard Summer School of Physical Training. The book provides a detailed account of Sargent's life, from his childhood in New Hampshire to his career in the field of physical education. Sargent shares his experiences as a student at Harvard University, where he developed a passion for physical education and became a pioneer in the field. He also describes his travels to Europe, where he studied the latest techniques in physical training and brought them back to the United States. The book offers insights into the challenges Sargent faced as a physical educator, including the resistance he encountered from those who believed that physical education was not a legitimate academic discipline. Sargent's autobiography is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of physical education and the development of the field in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
