Description:Excerpt from History of the Education of the Blind No up-to-date treatise on the important and interesting subject of "The History of the Education of the Blind" being in existence in this country, and the lack of such a text-book specially designed for the teachers in our blind schools being grievously felt, I have, in response to repeated requests, taken in hand the compilation of such a book from all sources at my command, adding at the same time sundry notes and comments of my own, which the experience of a quarter of a century in blind work has led me to think may be of service to those who desire to approach and carry on their work as teachers of the blind as well equipped with information specially suited to their requirements as circumstances will permit. It is but due to the juvenile blind in our schools that the men and women to whom their education is entrusted should not only be acquainted with the mechanical means of teaching through the tactile sense, but that they should also be so steeped in blind lore that it becomes second nature to them to think of and see things from the blind person's point of view. Paradoxical as the latter phrase may appear, it is none the less an absolute fact. It is necessary for a teacher to realise and to thoroughly appreciate the difficulties which his pupil has to encounter, before he can satisfactorily remove them.
