"The book makes a substantial contribution to the history of classics education in its exclusive focus on non-linguistic classics which have often been overlooked in favour of charting the fortunes of Greek and Latin. One of its key strengths is that it offers a more personal history, identifying key players alongside pivotal moments, and drawing on personal testimonies. This not only makes for a more engaging read, but a more comprehensive picture of the forces that have shaped the classics education landscape.What makes it even more original, is the attention it gives not just to the history of teaching Classical Civilisation and Ancient History, but to its present and future." - Prof. Sharon Marshall, University of Exeter
