' A school ", she says, " may be styled the world in miniature. There the passions which actuate the man may be seen on a smaller scale. " On this assumption, she ventured into the unknown microcosm of a boys' school, 1 where even Miss Edgeworth came to grief ; but her book was a model for some hun- dreds of school stories in which ambitious, studious or mischievous boys play impossible parts. She was more at home in a later study of schoolgirls 2 : careful sketches, brightened by satirical rem...arks ; but the moral is too obvious. Miss Sandham's sense of humour was too slight for effective relief. An admirable miscellany, which brings genuine adven- ture and comedy into the school setting, is The Academy ; 1 The Boys' School ; or, Traits of Character in Early Life. A Moral Tale by Miss Sandham. London, printed for John Souter at the School Library, 73 St. Paul's Churchyard, 1800. See Appendix, A. VI. 2 The Schoolfellows, a Moral Tale.
