Now in protective wrap. "This book is written by a 16-year-old boy who has just returned to the States after spending four years as a pupil in Neill's famed Summerhill School in Leiston, England. Unlike other critics of Neill who evaluate the Summerhill philosophy from a theoretical point of view, young Popenoe tells his story without any need to either cover-up, or accuse, or praise. He reports things just as he experienced them - both the good and the bad. The book is written with great charm and wit, and with a naiveté that is completely engaging. In some 50 pictures which he himself took at Summerhill, the young author reinforces his portrait of what Summerhill really is like." The young man Joshua Popenoe, continued in the creative and performing arts as he grew to adulthood.
