2. Quoted in Thursfield, Richard E., Henry Barnard's American Journal of Education (Baltimore: Johns Hopkins Press, 1945), p. 312. Thursfield's monograph is both an introduction and guide to the Journal, and the most complete study ever made. The Johnson reprint of the Journal would have been greatly enhanced if the Thursfield monograph had been reissued along with the volumes of the Journal, (It could have been bound with the 1892 Index, itself only 128 pages.)Google Scholar

4. There is no adequate life of Barnard. The best available source is Anna Blair, L., Henry Barnard: School Administrator (Minneapolis: Educational Publishers, 1938). The Will, S. Monroe Collection of Henry Barnard Manuscripts at the New York University library at Washington Square, New York City, contains some 13,500 letters and manuscript papers, largely unfiled and un-worked; and the Wadsworth Atheneum in Hartford, Connecticut, holds some additional 2,500 Barnard papers, holograph letters, manuscript sketches for the Journal, and many newspaper clippings. These primary sources, not only for Barnard, but for nineteenth-century American educational history as well, remain to be worked.Google Scholar
