The American Child
Elizabeth McCracken
(Author)
Description
The American Child is a classic parenting handbook by Elizabeth McCracken. Few of us will agree with the English woman that the child, the American child, is the only subject upon which we converse. Certainly, though, it is a favorite subject; it may even not inaptly be called our national subject. Whatever our various views concerning this may chance to be, however, it is likely that we are all in entire agreement with regard to the other matter touched upon by the English woman, --the pervasiveness of American children.Product Details
