"This is an excellent book by an excellent historian and writer. There's nothing new or groundbreaking here (well, it was published 20 years ago, but I mean I don't think there was anything new in it then, either), but it's a great survey history of education in the United States in the 20th century, and of lots of other things in 20th century American history, too. Well organized, well told, and very readable (even occasionally riveting in some places, believe it or not)."
