John Foxe

Foxe's Book of Martyrs, streamlined and reorganized for modern readers in this edition, is a classic of courage and faith. It chronicles the tragic yet triumphant stories of men and women who faced torture and martyrdom rather than deny their vision of truth and of God.

Excerpt from Pomiuk: A Waif of Labrador; A Brave Boy's Life for Brave Boys This story of kindness is all true. Some of my readers saw the merry face of Pomiuk when he was in the United States. Many more of them have seen and heard Doctor Grenfell, who is quite as much the hero of the story. I must acknowledge my deep obligations to the articles and the Pomiuk Scrap-book of Mr. Martin of The C ongre gationalist, upon which the entire narrative rests, for my place 18 Simply that of clerk in the matter.

Childhood's Favorites and Fairy Stories

"There is a time when a boy emerges from the narrow bounds of a dependent self-life and from the limits of the school and the home, and seeks the larger social world of the street and the "gang." The instinct is legitimate and masterful and full of possibilities of danger or help. Its recognition is recent and literature upon it is slight. It constitutes the most pressing problem of adolescence. The solution of the problem may be sought from three sources: from a study of boy life, from a study of the ways in which children spontaneously organize socially, and from a study of the ways adults organize for the benefit of boys. Such studies are the contents of the first four chapters. Following these are some conclusions and suggestions. The matter of the training of the individual boy in the home and the school is aside from the purpose of this inquiry, whose aim is to discuss the boy as dealt with in his social relations in the institutions of the community and the Church. To the science of this sort of education I have given the name social pedagogy"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2011 APA, all rights reserved).
