Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Child Life in Colonial Days It is my hope that children as well as grown folk will find in these pages much to interest them in the accounts of the llfe of children of olden times. I have had this end constantly in my mind, though I have made no attempt, nor had 1 any intent, to write in a style for the perusal of children; for I have not found that intelligent children care much 'or long for such hooks, except in the very rare cases of the few great hooks that have heen written for children, and which are loved and read as much hy the old as hy the young.

Excerpt from Child Life in Colonial Days When we regard the large share which child study has in the interest of the reader and thinker of to-day, it is indeed curious to see how little is told of child life in history. The ancients made no record of the life of young children; classic Rome furnishes no data for child study; the Greeks left no child forms in art The student of original sources of history learns little about children in his searches; few in number and comparatively meagre in quality are the literary re mains that even refer to them. We know little of the childhood days of our forbears, and have scant opportunity to make comparisons or note progress. The child of colonial days was emphatically "to be seen, not to be heard," - nor was he even to be much in evidence to the eye. He was of as little importance in domestic, social, or ethical relations as his childish successor is of great importance to-day; it was deemed neither courteous, decorous, nor wise to make him appear of value or note in his own eyes or in the eyes of his seniors. Hence there was none of that exhaustive study of the motives, thoughts, and acts of a child which is now rife.
