Book excerpt: The history of education is made up in part of accounts of various subjects which have developed into courses of study. Mathematics of some kind has always been included in such courses. In the American colonies, arithmetic was an important subject for practical reasons. It was needed for trade and commerce. Sailing vessels plying between Europe and America were the only means of communication with the "homeland." Navigation and all the kinds of sailing that had to be put to daily use came to be a continuation of the course in arithmetic. Astronomical observations were an important feature in laying out a course at sea and so astronomy is found in connection with arithmetic. Some elementary trigonometry, logarithms, and geometric constructions played a necessary part in the calculations incident to both navigation and astronomy. With this list, the practical uses of mathematics in that day are exhausted. It is the purpose of this study to show that algebra, another branch of mathematics entered into the American education of the eighteenth century, and to show further that we must seek some other reason for its presence than a practical need for it. The research connected with this work has been made from original sources found in many libraries, both public and private in the East. (An index is included; 124 footnotes.)
