Please note this is a 'Palgrave to Order' title. Stock of this book requires shipment from an overseas supplier. It will be delivered to you within 12 weeks. This book grapples with two basic questions. What is history? And How can history help illuminate contemporary concerns about the nature and character of America's schools? From antiquity to the postmodern present, history has served multiple purposes, including a basic human need to learn from what came before. Americans have long invested considerable time, energy, and emotion in their schools, both private and public, and a knowledge of history helps explain why.

Reese's established reputation as one of the foremost historians of American education...History, Education and the Schools is an excellent historiography, perfect for undergraduate and graduate courses on the topic." - Andrew Hartman, Register of the Kentucky Historial Society"This is a superb collection of throughtful educational history essays ranging from the investigation of public and private schooling in the past to the analysis of how those educational experiences might inform decision-making today. This well-written book will be of great interest not only to scholars, but to education policymakers and the general public as well." - Maris A. Vinovskis, Bentley Professor of History and Professor of Public Policy, University of Michigan"This sparkling set of essays will be essential reading for anyone concerned with understanding education or improving schools - past, present, or future." - Gary McCulloch, Brian Simon Professor of the History of Educatin, Institute of Education, University of London"This volume is timely, unique, and accessible.
