English for the English: A Chapter on National Education / by George Sampson

Originally published in 1916, this book by George Sampson is a powerful meditation on the role of education in shaping national identity. Sampson argues that schools should emphasize British culture and history, and that children should be taught to take pride in their English heritage. Written in the midst of World War I, this book is a compelling reflection on the meaning of national identity and the importance of education in shaping it.
