Summary: "Teaching the Child Patriotism" by Kate Upson Clark is a guidebook on instilling patriotic values in children, likely written in the early 20th century. The book discusses the importance of teaching children about their country's history, ideals, and duties as citizens. Through various chapters, it aims to demonstrate how narratives from the past can be utilized to foster a sense of national pride and responsibility. The opening of the book sets the stage by addressing a concerning trend among educators who argue against teaching patriotism through history. The author expresses her strong belief that historical events and heroic tales play a crucial role in developing a child's love for their country. She emphasizes that stories of sacrifices for freedom, such as those from Greece and Rome, are vital for cultivating an understanding of patriotism in youth. By illustrating how to convey these lessons effectively, the initial chapter underscores the necessity of historical context in the patriotic education of children, positioning it as both an emotional and a moral imperative.
