About This Item
Stamp Publishing, London, 2008. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good Condition/Very Good. This is the story of how, within seven decades of its foundation in 1923, the fledgling Stowe School established itself among the group of leading public schools. It covers not only the early years, when Stowe's ambitions had to contend with shortage of resources and make-shift facilities, and the heroism and losses of World War II, when every Old Stoic was of military age, but also the post-war changes in education and society which threatened old-style public school attitudes and the resolute march into the modern age of co-education, building programmes and technology. 361 pages. Tanning to page edges. Ex-Libris pasted in. Illustrated with black and white photographs. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: 1-2 kilos. Category: History::Great Britain; History; Education. ISBN/EAN: 9780954487928. Inventory No: 269158.. 9780954487928
