A Word In Favor Of Female Schools (1826)

""A Word in Favor of Female Schools"" is a book written by Frances Broadhurst and published in 1826. The book argues for the importance of educating young girls and women in a separate school environment, specifically addressing the benefits of female-only schools. Broadhurst argues that women have been historically denied access to education and that this has resulted in a lack of opportunities and limited social mobility. She contends that providing girls with a quality education will not only benefit them individually but will also have positive effects on society as a whole. The book also addresses common objections to female education, such as concerns about the impact on traditional gender roles and the potential for inappropriate behavior among students. Overall, ""A Word in Favor of Female Schools"" is an important historical text that sheds light on the struggles for gender equality in education during the early 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
