Review # 1 was written on 2010-09-24 00:00:00 Douglas Lindbo This is a perfect textbook for a history/philosophy of education course. Dozens of articles that explain how education was shaped in America. A great resource for writing your personal philosophy of education.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-07-29 00:00:00 Andrew Negapatan This was awful. Many reviews say things like "charming" and "pleasant," but I thought it was tedious and meandering. Not all history has to be chronological; there's interesting stuff in here but it's too long with details of Roman society. Also, the author writes like a blow-hard, and interjects things like "Alas!" and "Dear Reader" and "It is up to the reader to decide." That kind of stuff irritates me to no end. Searching for info online, I found references that refute much of what the author posits, including info about St. Patrick. Granted, the author (in tedious and blow-harded notes) acknowledges that no one can say exactly what happened, but he's disguising mythology and folklore as truth.
