Education in the Forming of the American South.
Best, John Hardin
History of Education Quarterly, v36 n1 p39-51 Spr 1996
Observes the romanticized, contradictory, and occasionally reviled character of the American South and considers the role education played in its development. Discusses shifting movements in American historical writing about education (from triumphant public access to oppressive social control) and how these related to the southern experience. (MJP)
