5.0 out of 5 stars Helpful and practical., 8 April 1999
By A Customer
I've read Charlotte Mason's original works and every other book on Charlotte Mason topics, but I always had trouble with the details of practically applying Miss Mason's methods with my students. Levison's book took the mystery out of the method. Within the first 24 hours of reading A Charlotte Mason Education, I started applying the methods with my children and we loved it! I knew Charlotte Mason's methods were what I wanted to use... and this great little book made it possible. I highly recommend this book to anyone seriously considering implementing Charlotte Mason's methods in their home or school.

3.0 out of 5 stars Levison's manual is very personal interpretation, 28 Mar 2008
By J. Wren (Midlands, UK) - See all my reviews
This How to Guide for the implementation of Charlotte Mason's extensive writings is very much Levison's personal interpretation. The guide is a useful shortcut, or starting point but it is only that. The author cherry picks, or adapts parts of the Mason's methods so they fit in with her own Christian, creationist views which can be off-putting for those with other beliefs. There are factual errors and misinterpretations - some of which are openly acknowledged, but, as Levison explains, some of these misinterpretations fit in with her own agenda and so she leaves them in.

Despite this some of Mason's excellent ideas shine through. Some of the author's examples of how she timetables and implements a full programme are also welcome. However, the book should have been titled `A Personal Christian Interpretation', rather than the more impartial 'How to Guide'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Makes the whole CM system available for today., 8 Jan 2008
I have to admit that I have not worked my entire way through all of Charlotte Mason's volumes yet; but this book I read in an afternoon and found it light and refreshing. It takes the whole subject and makes it clear and understandable. The only draw back I have with the book is that most of the "recipes" can only be applied if you live in the states. But this shouldn't detract at all if you're serious about using CM for homeschooling.
For me, this book is essential.
