WHAT THIS BOOK IS ABOUT.

"A Dominie's Log" was directly due to the Scottish code of Education, bywhich it is forbidden to enter general reflections or opinions in theofficial log-book.

Requiring a safety-valve, a young Dominie decides to keep a privatelog-book. In it he jots down the troubles and comedies of the day'swork. Sometimes he startles even his own bairns by hisunconventionality.

There is a lot in Education that he does not understand. The one thing,however, that he does comprehend is the Child Mind, and he possesses thesaving quality of humour.
