My Larger Education: Being Chapters From My Experience (1911) is a memoir written by Booker T. Washington, an African American educator and leader in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book is a collection of essays and speeches that Washington gave throughout his life, reflecting on his experiences and offering insights into his philosophy of education and racial uplift. Washington was born into slavery and rose to prominence as the founder and principal of the Tuskegee Institute, a historically black college in Alabama. In My Larger Education, he shares his personal journey from slavery to success, as well as his thoughts on the importance of education, hard work, and self-reliance in achieving success. The book is divided into chapters that cover different aspects of Washington's life and work, including his childhood in Virginia, his education at Hampton Institute, his experiences as a teacher and administrator at Tuskegee, and his travels and speeches around the country. Throughout the book, Washington emphasizes the importance of practical education and vocational training, as well as the need for African Americans to work hard and prove themselves worthy of respect and equality. My Larger Education is an important historical document that offers insights into the life and work of one of the most influential African American leaders of the early 20th century. It is also a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of education, race relations, and social justice in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
