About this ebook

For over 130 years, Charlotte Mason's writings have inspired educators and parents seeking a deeply humane approach to education. Though her works are over a century old and can be challenging to read in their original form, they have endured as foundational texts in educational philosophy rooted in a Christian worldview.

Now two volumes from Mason's original Home Education series are available as annotated critical editions--Home Education and School Education--making Mason's landmark works accessible to modern readers in a new and comprehensive way. These books are also available as a two-volume set.

Home Education offers an overview of the philosophy, methodology, and practical outworkings of the Charlotte Mason method, with a particular focus on education and discipleship in the home. Mason's original text is preserved in full, accompanied by annotations, footnotes, references to cited works, a four-color insert, and historical and philosophical context to help readers engage more deeply with her ideas. Four original essays from scholars and practitioners offer further guidance.

This annotated critical edition brings one of Mason's most influential works to a broad audience, including Christian schools, homeschool co-ops, students of education, and parents. It features a high-quality design, images throughout, and a foreword by Deani Van Pelt.
