The Hoosier School-Master (Barnes & Noble Digital Library)

Published in 1871, this was Eggleston's first and most successful novel. Eggleston's use of authentic regional dialect was highly influential on the subsequent course of American literature. Based on the experiences of Eggleston's brother George, the novel follows a young schoolmaster in his first year of teaching at a backwoods Indiana school.
