More about the book

The narrative explores Hugh Miller's educational journey from a small village school in Cromarty to the more liberal environment of Edinburgh. His vivid descriptions reveal the strict discipline and religious instruction of his early education, contrasting it with Enlightenment ideas and scientific thought encountered later. Miller emphasizes the critical role of accessible education for personal and social advancement, advocating for its importance across all social classes. This autobiographical account serves as a valuable historical document of 19th-century Scottish education.
