CONDITION NOTES: GOOD. Solid page and cover attachment. MISSING covers and last fly leaf BINDING: Pamphlet.NOTES: Apparently part of a wider series that wasn't published completely. The University of Missouri material, however, is complete and excellent. Begins with an introduction that analyzes the origins and growth of the American educational system from elementry schools to "superior" schools (i.e. colleges and universities). From this general introduction, another introduction includes an incomplete outline of a larger history of education 1776-1876 which ran out of time or funds. Then a complete history of the University of Missouri, sure to fill pages, it's actually a lively contribution with plates and excellent writing. Listing and template services provided by inkFrog
