The American State Normal School is the first comprehensive history of the state normal schools in the United States. Although nearly two-hundred state colleges and regional universities throughout the U.S. began as 'normal' schools, the institutions themselves have buried their history, and scholars have largely overlooked them. As these institutions later became state colleges and/or regional universities, they distanced themselves from the low status of elementary-literally erasing physical evidence of their normal-school past. In doing so, they buried the rich history of generations of students for whom attending normal school was an enriching, and sometimes life-changing experience. Focusing on these students, the first wave of 'non-traditional' students in higher education, The American State Normal School is a much-needed re-examination of the state normal school.This book was subject of an annual History of Education Society panel for best new books in the field.

Excerpt from History of the State Normal School, Farmington, Maine: With Sketches The publication of this history has been undertaken for a threefold purpose: first, to preserve records that it would have been impossible to secure in a few years; secondly, to show how important a place the School has filled, and is filling, in the educational work of the State; and, thirdly, to create a new interest among the gradu ates for the School and for one another, by strengthening the ties of those early, school-day friendships that have grown weak by time and distance, and the cares and burdens of life.
