A Dominie's Log is a memoir written by Alexander Sutherland Neill, a Scottish educator who founded the Summerhill School in England, which is known for its progressive and child-centered approach to education. The book is a collection of Neill's reflections on his experiences as a teacher in Scotland, where he worked in a traditional school system that emphasized discipline and rote learning.

Throughout the book, Neill argues for a more humane and individualized approach to education, one that recognizes the unique needs and interests of each student.
