 Explore the captivating journey of Bostonian Henry Adams as he grapples with the transformative changes of the early 20th century, a stark contrast to his youthful days. This insightful work offers a keen critique of the 19th-century education system, revealing its flaws and limitations. Originally, Adams privately circulated limited copies in 1907, funded from his own pocket. It wasn’t until his death in 1918 that the book was commercially published and subsequently awarded the 1919 Pulitzer Prize.
