Description

Although much has been written on developments in learning in New France, a comprehensive treatment of education during this period is lacking. In Education in New France, Roger Magnuson redresses the balance by examining seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Canadian education in all its forms, including missionary instruction, apprenticeship training, and attempts to increase literacy. He draws on new research to show that the formal school was not the only important source of teaching and learning in Canada before 1760.
