This 1883 juvenile novel, a sequel to Eggleston's first and best-known novel, The Hoosier School-Master , is based on the experiences of Eggleston's brother as a teacher. It offers considered criticisms of rural educational practices in Indiana but is also full of nostalgia for a bygone time in American life.
