Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is an autobiography of sorts, penned by the founder of Colorado College. Reflecting on his life, the author recounts his early years in Massachusetts, where he felt an intense connection with nature and a calling to serve God. This sense of duty, coupled with a belief in the power of education, inspired the author to travel west and establish a new college in Colorado Springs. The author's journey and the founding of Colorado College are seen as part of a larger movement to bring educational opportunities to the American frontier. It explores themes of westward expansion, the role of faith in shaping one's life, and the importance of education in shaping the future of the American West. The author's insights into these topics offer a unique perspective on the history of higher education in the United States.
