The Story of my Life

Egerton Ryerson was a prominent Canadian educator, politician, and Methodist minister. In this candid autobiography, Ryerson recounts his experiences as a young student, his pioneering work in education reform, and his tenure as chief superintendent of education for Upper Canada. He also discusses his views on political issues such as the role of the church, the struggle for responsible government, and the impact of colonialism on Indigenous peoples. The Story of My Life is a fascinating glimpse into the development of Canada's educational system and the social and political issues of the nineteenth century.
