Home Education Series Vol. V: Some Studies in the Formation of Character
This is the fifth volume in the Home Education Series detailing Charlotte Mason's method of education. This volume is subtitled "Some Studies in the Formation of Character," although the author explains in the preface why she considers this to be somewhat of a misnomer. The series is used today by many home-schoolers around the globe and is considered a classic reference by the founder of the homeschooling movement. - Summary by Devorah Allen
