The Free School Idea In Virginia Before The Civil War: A Phase Of Political And Social Evolution is a historical book written by William Arthur Maddox. The book explores the concept of free schools in Virginia before the Civil War and how it was a significant phase of political and social evolution in the state. Maddox delves into the history of education in Virginia, which was limited to the wealthy and privileged class before the introduction of free schools. He examines the political and social factors that led to the establishment of free schools, including the impact of the American Revolution and the rise of democracy in Virginia. The book also explores the challenges faced by the free school movement, including resistance from the wealthy and influential classes who feared losing their power and influence. Maddox examines the role of key figures in the free school movement, such as Thomas Jefferson and William Henry Ruffner, and their contributions to the evolution of education in Virginia. Overall, The Free School Idea In Virginia Before The Civil War: A Phase Of Political And Social Evolution provides a comprehensive and detailed account of the free school movement in Virginia and its impact on the state's political and social development.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
