The moral tone is plain. "She is kind to the old blind man." The exercises are still suitable, and perhaps more helpful than some contemporary alternatives. Much is left to the teacher. Explanations given in the text are enough to get started teaching a child to read and write. Counting in Roman numerals is included as a bonus in the form of lesson numbers. The "non-ASCI" text remains as images. The "non-ASCI" text is approximated in text boxes to right of the image, as are script images. The author, not listed in the text is William Holmes McGuffey.
