Reseña del libro "Eleazar Wheelock, 1711-1779, Daniel Webster, 1782-1852: And Their Pioneer Dartmouth College (en Inglés)"
This book, titled ""Eleazar Wheelock, 1711-1779, Daniel Webster, 1782-1852: And Their Pioneer Dartmouth College"" by John Sloan Dickey, explores the history of Dartmouth College and the two influential figures who played a significant role in its establishment and growth. The first part of the book focuses on Eleazar Wheelock, the founder of the college, who was a Congregational minister and educator in colonial America. Wheelock founded Dartmouth College in 1769 as a school for Native American students, with the goal of converting them to Christianity and educating them in Western culture. The book delves into Wheelock's life, his religious beliefs, and his vision for the college.The second part of the book focuses on Daniel Webster, a Dartmouth alumnus and prominent American politician who played a key role in defending the college during a legal battle in the early 19th century. Webster's defense of Dartmouth College in the famous Dartmouth College v. Woodward case helped establish the legal principle of corporate charter rights and cemented the college's status as a private institution. The book explores Webster's life, his political career, and his connection to Dartmouth College.Throughout the book, Dickey provides a detailed account of the history of Dartmouth College, from its founding to its evolution into a modern university. He also examines the college's role in American society and its impact on higher education in the United States. Overall, ""Eleazar Wheelock, 1711-1779, Daniel Webster, 1782-1852: And Their Pioneer Dartmouth College"" is a comprehensive exploration of the history of Dartmouth College and the individuals who shaped its development.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
