Peer reviewedRury, John L. – Urban Education, 1988
Examination of decennial federal census manuscript returns from 1900 reveals that ethnicity, class, and family size were important determinants of who went to school and who did not. Ethnicity was a particularly critical variable for female education, and economic class was the most important determinant of male education. (BJV)
