The Real Thing
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
The book is more than just a history of American Education. It contains all or part of many actual historical documents, organized by time period and topic. And the topics relate to American History in many more areas than simply education. The ideas of our Founding Fathers, early struggles for Civil Rights, immigration, women's rights, and the Native American experience are all a part of this text. Yes, Fraser includes his own comments which are helpful for the study of history, but it is his compilation of original documents that makes this a winner.
