The City and Education in Four Nations is a response to a long-standing need for the placing of urban educational study in broader comparative contexts, both historical and international. This volume offers an account of the historical educational experiences of four major English-speaking countries, opening up new research agendas in a variety of fields. An international team of contributors has been assembled, combining historical and educational expertise, and the work should interest scholars in a number of disciplines, including urban history, urban and comparative education, social and public policy, social and cultural history and the history of education.

Published in 1987, Unequal Educational Provision in England and Wales is a valuable contribution to the field of Education.

Moving from a specialist interest in recent years, the study of the history of education has flourished and expanded. Focusing on literacy, this study reviews the history of education in the nineteenth century and the academic debates surrounding it.
