Emma Hart Willard

""An Address to the Public, Particularly to the Members of the Legislature of New York, Proposing a Plan for Improving Female Education"" is a book written by Emma Willard in 1819. The book is a proposal for improving the education of women in the United States, with a focus on New York. Willard argues that women should be given the same educational opportunities as men, including access to higher education. She proposes a plan for a school that would provide a comprehensive education for women, including subjects such as mathematics, science, and history. Willard also argues that women should be trained to be teachers, so that they can educate future generations of women. The book is a significant contribution to the history of women's education in the United States and helped to pave the way for the establishment of women's colleges and universities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
