Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a series of essays by renowned experts on the many aspects of Harrow School life and history. The essays offer a wealth of new information, much of it based on painstaking research into original sources such as Court Rolls dating back to the reign of Edward III. Highlights include the discovery of a school at Harrow as early as 1475, and the revelation that in the 1470s, it was illegal for Harrow tenants to send their children to schools outside the manor without the Lord's permission. The book addresses broader themes too, such as the evolution of public school education in England and the lasting legacy of figures like Archbishop John Lyon, whose foundation provided free grammar school education for centuries. Ultimately, this book provides a rich and multifaceted portrait of Harrow, a school with a fascinating past and a continuing relevance in shaping the lives of young people today. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
