For those nostalgic people like myself who look back to the "good ol' Days", this book provides a visual and textual glimpse into that simpler period. It has beautiful pictures of all sorts of unique one-room schools across our country. In addition, the author backs these photos with accurate, informative, and interesting text. Kids should love this book so they can observe what life was like for "grandma and grandpa" while they went to school.

Nice pictures. Great gift for an educator. Includes plenty of historical information.

Beautiful photographs and simple evocative text. I enjoyed the book and it is a valued part of my growing collection on this subject.

This book was informative,and the photographs were great. Having passed several one-room schoolhouses on my travels and heard many stories from people who attended one-room schoolhouses, I found this refreshing and easy to read.

(...) Their are nice pictures of schools, children, and teachers. There is a list of books for "Further Reading."

Very informative, many good photos. Great Christmas gift for a Teacher in our family!

Wanted to give my granddaughter in law a gift that a new schoolteacher would find interesting so searched for items related to one room school houses. I was able to supplement the gift package with a first hand account by my 95 year old mother who attended classes in a one room schoolhouse for eight years. Was pleased that this book was in such good condition as promised by the seller.
