| Summary | "The History of Dartmouth College" by Baxter Perry Smith is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book delves into the origins and development of Dartmouth College, focusing particularly on the influential figure of Eleazar Wheelock, the college's founder, and his vision for elevating the education of Native Americans. The opening of the text presents a preface and introduction that highlight the significance of educational institutions in shaping a nation's history. It discusses the early aspirations of Wheelock and his commitment to providing education to Native American youth, alongside establishing a broader educational framework for the college itself. It touches upon historical contexts, such as previous failed attempts at founding institutions for Native Americans and the efforts of various individuals and societies to support this cause. Through a careful blending of historical anecdotes and documentation, the author sets the stage for an in-depth exploration of Dartmouth College's legacy and the societal pressures and triumphs surrounding its establishment.
