Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the summer months of 1912, thousands of visitors arrived on passenger trains to visit the resort town of Culver, Indiana and enjoy sparkling Lake Maxinkuckee. They stayed in the hotels that dotted the town and lake and danced the night away on the floating dance pavilion, The White Swan. It was a time of new beginnings when everything seemed possible. Grayson is haunted by his past, but is doing his best to change his ways and make something of himself. Shane is living his dream and is content-until he meets Grayson. The two young cadets of the Culver Military Academy see something in each other they have never seen in another boy. Both know they are different, but one tries to turn from that life while the other indulges in it. Together, perhaps, they can find happiness. Cadets of Culver is a tale of love, friendship, and coming to grips with a tragic past. This novel includes vintage photos.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Both a history of the pre-college military school in the United States and a reference guide to the institutions past and present, this comprehensive work begins by discussing several notable military school founders, including Southern Industrial Institute founder Rev. Lyman Ward, New York Military Academy founder Charles Jefferson Wright, and St. John’s Military Academy founder Sidney Thomas Smythe, among others. It discusses the role of religious organizations in founding and maintaining military institutions, as well as a range of other topics: faculties and administrators; curricular changes and innovations since the 19th century; escalating tuition costs and the role of money in determining a school’s success or failure; and the future of the pre-college military school. A second part lists some 355 individual schools and summarizes the history of each, providing details on enrollments and tuitions.

Book excerpt: Commemorating the 50-year anniversary of CGA, "Culver Daughters" explores, in word and imagery, the history of one of the most significant and impactful educational programs for young women in the world. The opening of the Culver Academy for Girls (today's Culver Girls Academy) in the fall of 1971 represented a remarkable moment in history, generating a uniquely coordinate, rather than simply coeducational, program in partnership with one of the nation's premiere secondary educational programs: Culver Military Academy. The story of the founding of CGA and the extraordinary growth of opportunities and successes for women in leadership at Culver Academies has never before been told in book-length form, and provides a complement to the earlier history of women at Culver, Mary Frances England's "Culver Daughters Sing Thy Praise," which concluded its story in 1971.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the founding of the United States Military Academy at West Point in 1802, more than eight hundred military schools have existed in this country. The vast majority have closed their doors, been absorbed into other educational institutions, or otherwise faded away, but others soldier on, adapting to changing times and changing educational needs. While many individual institutions have had their histories written or their stories told, to date no single book has attempted to explore the full scope of the military school in American history. Cadets on Campus is the first book to cover the origin, history, and culture of the nation’s military schools—secondary and collegiate—and this breadth of coverage will appeal to historians and alumni alike. Author John Alfred Coulter identifies several key figures who were pivotal to the formation of military education, including Sylvanus Thayer, the “father of West Point,” and Alden Partridge, the founder of the school later known as Norwich University, the first private military school in the country. He also reveals that military schools were present across the nation, despite the conventional wisdom that most military schools, and, indeed, the culture that surrounds them, were limited to the South. Coulter addresses the shuttering of military schools in the era after the Vietnam War and then notes a curious resurgence of interest in military education since the turn of the century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once considered a bastion of learning, leadership, and disciplined lifestyle, today’s private military academies are often regarded as expensive holding facilities for unwanted, incorrigible boys who have nowhere else to go. Their depiction in popular media has reinforced the impression that they are boot camps disguised as educational institutions. The reality is far more complex and far more encouraging. Using a decade of participant observation research, including serving as an instructor at some of these schools, anthropologist William Trousdale explores the contemporary experience of military school life. From the admissions office to daily life in barracks, classrooms, playing fields, and social events, he describes how these schools endeavor to realize their mission of creating educated, mature young men from largely at-risk youth and the challenges—both met and unmet—in doing so. This volume will be of interest to those studying secondary and alternative education, at-risk youth, and the role of the military in society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was September 1983 when Joseph Horvath began questioning whether he belonged at Culver Academies, a boarding-prep-military private school in Indiana. A veteran public school teacher but new to private boarding school life, Horvath struggled to find his niche and embrace the notion that the staff and students were family. Yet it was not long before private lessons with a student led him to realize he did indeed belong. In a candid memoir, Horvath chronicles his thirty-four years teaching at the Culver Academies while offering insights into his experiences both in and out of the classroom. As he details his encounters with students as he guided them through lessons, Horvath shines a light on how educators coach their pupils to greatness and belief in their abilities through patience, time, and gentle encouragement. Throughout his story, Horvath reveals the challenges, and poignant and humorous moments that teachers often face on a daily basis while contemplating those who most influenced him in his own journey. From the Rearview Mirror shares reflections from a seasoned educator as he looks back on his tenure at Culver Academies in Indiana.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in Anticipating Total War explore the discourse on war in Germany and the United States between 1871 and 1914. The concept of "total war" provides the analytical focus. The essays reveal vigorous discussions of warfare in several forums among soldiers, statesmen, women's groups, and educators on both sides of the Atlantic. Predictions of long, cataclysmic wars were not uncommon in these discussions, while the involvement of German and American soldiers in colonial warfare suggested that future combat would not spare civilians. Despite these "anticipations of total war," virtually no one realized the practical implications in planning for war in the early twentieth century.

Book excerpt: Object Lessons and the Formation of Knowledge explores the museums, libraries, and special collections of the University of Michigan on its bicentennial. Since its inception, U-M has collected and preserved objects: biological and geological specimens; ethnographic and archaeological artifacts; photographs and artistic works; encyclopedia, textbooks, rare books, and documents; and many other items. These vast collections and libraries testify to an ambitious vision of the research university as a place where knowledge is accumulated, shared, and disseminated through teaching, exhibition, and publication. Today, two hundred years after the university’s founding, museums, libraries, and archives continue to be an important part of U-M, which maintains more than twenty distinct museums, libraries, and collections. Viewed from a historic perspective, they provide a window through which we can explore the transformation of the academy, its public role, and the development of scholarly disciplines over the last two centuries. Even as they speak to important facets of Michigan’s history, many of these collections also remain essential to academic research, knowledge production, and object-based pedagogy. Moreover, the university’s exhibitions and displays attract hundreds of thousands of visitors per year from the campus, regional, and global communities. Beautifully illustrated with color photographs of these world-renowned collections, this book will appeal to readers interested in the history of museums and collections, the formation of academic disciplines, and of course the University of Michigan.
