Paperback. Condition: New. Second Edition. Alison Prentice's 1977 groundbreaking monograph The School Promoters is a revisionist account of public education's emergence. This latest edition includes a foreword and appendices by editors Bruce Curtis, Jennifer Henderson, and Mythili Rajiva, offering updated analysis and primary documents that deepen the understanding of Egerton Ryerson's role in shaping Ontario's educational system.
