"A Long Way Together"
"Tradition and Reform in the Teaching of English" is considered one of the most significant works published regarding the topic of English and English teaching in America. Charting the emergence of English as a school subject in the 1880's, Arthur Applebee traces both the subject and its teaching through the decades and weaves into his narrative the role of the National Council of Teachers of English as well as the influence of many political, social, and cultural forces in American history. The book ends in the early 1970s and features a comprehensive bibliography as well as useful appendices.
