Excerpt from University Tutorial Classes: A Study in the Development of Higher Education Among Working Men and Women
The desire for education, as a way of life rather than as a means of livelihood or a mere intellectual exercise, is instinctive among English people and ready to reveal itself, under favourable conditions, at any moment Its recent manifestation in what is known as the University Tutorial Class movement is so full of hope and promise for the future of our country, and indeed of all the English-speaking peoples, as to justify this attempt to describe what it has done, what it is, and what it may be.
This book will have achieved much if it is privileged to reveal a simple movement, often obscured by misconceptions and the perplexing paraphernalia of modern life, to those who have not up to the present been brought into touch with it.
