The companion volume to the four-part PBS television series:

A lively and comprehensive history of public education in the United States, School tells the sweeping, turbulent, and always inspiring story of a great American experiment. Through historical essays, vivid testimony, and hugely entertaining photographs, it shows how the history of American schools in many ways mirrors the history of American democracy.
