From the Dust Jacket: "Twenty years ago, all-girl schools seemed headed for extinction, a minor footnote in the broad story of American education. Today they are experiencing a dramatic revival. In this book Ilana DeBare interweaves the first complete history of girls' schools in America with her own personal story of cofounding an all-girl school in Oakland, California, in 1999Â DeBare brings to life the pioneering founders of girls' schools -- from Emma Willard, who faced ridicule for daring to teach geometry to girls, to Prudence Crandall, who was jailed for opening a school for Afro-American girls in the 1830s. With vivid portraits of these brave women, as well as profiles of schools today, this book dismantles many of the lingering myths and misunderstandings about the girls' school experience.".
