This book is written like a series of essays that are not very coherently organized. It was written for a publishing co that got cold feet, so it looks like a self-published pre-edited version of a massive work on the history and current state of public school. It is full of fascinating facts, well-researched and referenced. But it doesn't read very well.

This book could use some editing. It seems to go all over the place without completing a full thought. Having said that, it is FULL of references to back up the author's assertions and is very fascinating reading for anyone interested in the history of public schooling.
