Resource

Sewall, E. Q. (Edmund Quincy), 1828-1908. Diary, 1840.

Title: Diary, 1840.

This brief diary chronicles Sewall's studies with the Thoreaus, March 28-May 16, 1840. The school was noted for its educational innovations and the Thoreaus stressed "learning by doing." Sewall records the numerous field trips the students took and also describes other aspects of school life important to young boys: pranks, meals, and assigned compositions. Included in the collection are two samples of his compositions on the subjects "birds" and "fishes." Walter Harding in his biography of Thoreau, The Days of Henry Thoreau (N.Y.: Knopf, 1964), pp. 77-79ff., quotes passages from the diary and cites its location as part of a collection held in private hands by Sewall descendants. It is not clear if the AAS volume is a copy of the original diary or if it is the original.
