With direct appeal to the younger audience, Noah WEBSTER'S ADVICE TO THE YOUNG, gently inculcates respect for authority, social responsiblitity, religious obligation, & productive citizenship. Of course, we know Webster through our tattered dictionaries, but he was more than lexicographer; he was "America's Schoolmaster." Webster's work conquered ignorance, & perpetuated the ideals of the new Republic. Indeed, he taught millions to read, & his books captivated young readers throughout the newly formed United States. WallBuilders Press preserves the timeless words of the sagacious Webster in this reprint of ADVICE TO THE YOUNG (1832) & MORAL CATECHISM (1783). Taken from two of his earlier works, Webster's ADVICE seeks to "enlighten the minds of youth in religious & moral principles," & "to restrain some of the common vices of our country." He speaks to the heart of America; he speaks to our children. Webster's work specifically delights a library's younger audience. Bookstores will appreciate the attractive cover illustrating a handsome young Webster superimposed upon an idyllic country-school setting. This & other books-including several historical reprints-as well as videos & audios, are available from WallBuilders, Inc., P.O. Box 397, Aledo, TX 76008, 1-800-873-2845.

16 Even Webster's massive dictionary provides at least two striking illustrations of his insistence on Christianity in education.
