Thinking with Both Hands
"Sir Daniel Wilson was the first teacher of history and English literature at the University of Toronto. Educator, administrator, ethnologist, man of letters, and antiquarian, Wilson is perhaps the best Canadian example of the well-rounded nineteenth-century scholar. His career, explored here in ten essays, paralleled the rise to authority in Victorian Canada of both science and educational institutions."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
