About this item

Schoolbooks were not provided by the schools when this book was printed in 1817. Parents had to purchase them for their children from a list approved by their local district school committee. Because the books were expensive, they were often passed down through the family. The information about nature, farming, and the weather in this book is organized by month.  It does not cover the western or southwestern regions of the United States.
