Here's what I found about Marcius Willson (1813-1905):
- American Educator and Author: While details beyond his publications are scarce, resources consistently identify him as an American educator [2].
- Focus on History and Education: Marcius Willson's main contributions seem to be in the field of education, particularly history. Library catalogs show he authored several textbooks including "History of the United States" (with revisions reflecting major events like the Civil War), readers, and spellers [3]. His 1854 book "Outlines of History" suggests a broader interest in world history as well [3].
Possible Additional Leads:
- A Yale University archive entry lists something he created in 1863, though details are limited [5].
- There's a reference to a work titled "Jagadvrttānta" published in 1860 in Agra, India, but the context is unclear [3].
