88pp plus prelims. In red cloth-covered boards with silver titles on spine (cloth a little rubbed on edges, gently rounded at corners and spine ends). Internally neat, clean, bright and tight. Much has been written about the 1870 Education Act, which laid the basis for universal, compulsory elementary education in England and Wales, but there is little which effectively sets this measure in its context, dealing both with its antecedents and its outcomes. This volume fills that gap. 8vo.
