Charlotte Mason in Modern English

Charlotte Mason's ideas are too important not to be understood and implemented in the 21st century, but her Victorian style of writing sometimes prevents parents from attempting to read her books. This is an imperfect attempt to make Charlotte's words accessible to modern parents. You may read these, print them out, share them freely--but they are copyrighted to me, so please don't post or publish them without asking.

Appendix

A Few Books Dealing With Education

Charlotte Mason included short articles from her Parents' Reviews that reviewed books about education. Since these are obscure, out-of-print books that most readers won't be seeking out, I'm going to list the titles, but not a paraphrase of the reviews. They can be read in the original language version of Volume 5.
