First published in 1984, Post-School Education attempts to compare development of post-school education in America and England in nineteenth century. Divided into eight chapters, it discusses themes like traditions and attitudes; systems of school education; middle class initiatives prior to 1850; educational provision for adults in the 19th century; the growth of technical education; the development of university education; and the role of government, to showcase the extent to which England influenced America and differences between the two experiences. This book is an essential read for scholars and researchers of history of education, American education, British education and education in general.
