Ethics : An Early American Handbook by Jacob Abbott EN
Country: North America / United States of America
United States of America
Description:
Much attention has recently been focused on re-instituting ethics and character education. Yet, what is being taught today is simply a re-teaching of traits taught for centuries - traits such as industry, honesty, politeness, gratitude, purity, and duty to God. Because such qualities are timeless in their application, an early 1890 work (based on works from the 1840s) is here reprinted for contemporary use. This work will inspire citizens of all ages to a greater elevation of their own character and therefore of the nation's character.
