Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a report of a trial held in Ohio during the late 19th century. The trial stems from the introduction of a new compulsory education law that mandated all children between the ages of eight and fourteen to attend some form of school for a minimum of twenty weeks per year. The author focuses on the case of Patrick F. Quigley, a priest of the area who refused to provide the names and other information of children in his parish to the authorities, as was required by the new law. The author provides a detailed account of the legal arguments presented during the trial, as well as the social and political context surrounding them. The author also explores the broader implications of the case, including the tension between religious freedom and the state's interest in education. This book offers a valuable glimpse into the history of education law in the United States and the complex issues surrounding it.
