An exposition of Montessori's system specifically written by an American parent for American parents and published the same year as Montessori's own The Montessori Method. There were two other 1912 publications in English about Montessori, Theodate Louise Smith's The Montessori System in Theory and Practice (NY: Harper's) and a 30 page pamphlet by Anna Tolman Smith published by the U.S. Government Printing Office ("The Montessori System of Education …"). I don't know which has priority, but the present book, published in October, is likely the third English-language publication about Montessori (not by Montessori herself). Fisher followed in 1913 with her A Montessori Manual. The present work remained in print into the late 1920s, had Canadian and UK editions, and was translated into German in 1927.
