This book traces the early history of the Montessori movement in
the United States through the lives and careers of four key
American women: Anne George, Margaret Naumburg, Helen Parkhurst,
and Adelia Pyle. Caught up in the Montessori craze sweeping the
United States in the Progressive era, each played a significant
role in the initial transference of Montessori education to America
and its implementation from 1910 to 1920. Despite the continuing
international recognition of Maria Montessori and the presence of
Montessori schools world-wide, Montessori receives only cursory
mention in the history of education, especially by recognized
historians in the field and in courses in professional education
and teacher preparation. The authors, in seeking to fill this
historical void, integrate institutional history with analysis of
the interplay and tensions between these four women to tell this
educational story in an interesting-and often dramatic-way.
