'Home Education Series Vol. IV: Ourselves, Book II. Self-Direction' Summary
Charlotte Mason's "Ourselves, Book II: Self-Direction" explores the concept of self-knowledge and self-direction in education.

Mason's methods have been used by homeschoolers for decades and continue to be popular today.Book Details
