| Summary | "Egerton Ryerson and Education in Upper Canada" by J. Harold Putman is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the life and contributions of Egerton Ryerson, a pivotal figure in the development of Ontario's educational system, highlighting the evolution of school legislation in Upper Canada from the late 18th century through the mid-19th century. By intimately connecting Ryerson's efforts with the broader context of education in Upper Canada, the book presents both Ryerson's biography and a timeline of educational reform, revealing the significance of educational advancements during this crucial period. The opening of the book introduces Egerton Ryerson, detailing his early life and the factors that shaped his commitment to education and social reform. Born in a family of United Empire Loyalists, Ryerson's upbringing was influenced by his father’s pioneering spirit and the Methodist faith. The text outlines his initial education and early career as a teacher, leading to his calling as a Methodist preacher and missionary. It gives insight into Ryerson's advocacy for educational reform, suggesting that his experiences in Upper Canada, especially during his missionary work, informed his later initiatives aimed at enhancing educational access for all demographics. Thus, the beginning establishes a foundational understanding of Ryerson's character and motivations, setting the stage for his transformative impact on the educational landscape in Upper Canada.
