"A history of education in the Church of the Brethren" / John S. Flory: p. [2]-104.
Summary
The Educational Blue Book and Directory undertakes to present the main facts of the educational movement in the Church of the Brethren from its origin to the present time (1923), and to preserve for future use as much data as possible connected with the educational work of the Brethren. A brief history of education in the Church of the Brethren was prepared for this volume by Dr. John S. Flory, of Bridgewater College, Bridgewater, Virginia. To accompany the text, the Editors assembled numerous photographs of buildings, views, and persons.
These are pictures and some photographs used in Riddle's published book of the same title.
