The German Egyptologist and historical novelist Georg Ebers writes for his sons about his early years: childhood in Berlin, family festivals, a journey to Holland for a golden wedding, and the formative years at Friedrich Froebel’s school at Keilhau among remarkable teachers, before university and the beginnings of his scholarly life.
A warm nineteenth-century German memoir, valuable too for its portrait of Froebel’s educational circle. Download the free EPUB.
