Summary:

Most educators have heard of the Jeanes Teachers and know something of their work as supervisors of black rural schools in the southern states. The present volume--historical, descriptive, and critical--is an account of the Jeanes movement from its inception through 1933. Here is an excellent answer to the question of what can be done for African American education in the rural South.
