Hertfordshire
Author: Nikolaus PevsnerPublisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 9780300096118
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 552
Book Description
Although so close to London this is still a rural area, with quiet country churches with fine monuments, timber-framed farmhouses, and some splendid country houses, of which the most celebrated is Cecil's Jacobean Hatfield House. At St Albans the remains of Roman Verulamium and the great early Norman abbey speak eloquently of older civilizations. The towns offer intriguing contrasts: Hertford, Bishop's Stortford and Hitchin still have the character of traditional market centres, while the new towns of Stevenage, Hemel Hempstead and Hatfield are important exemplars of planning ideals of the 1950s and 60s.

John Newsom
Author: David ParkerPublisher: Univ of Hertfordshire Press
ISBN: 9780954218980
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
This biography of an outstanding figure in the post-World War II British school system offers new and important insights into the history of education. Detailing Newsom's ides about the type of schooling children would need after the war, it is shown how he quickly coordinated the country's welfare and education services as many thousands of evacuees escaped to Hertfordshire from the German bombing raids on London. His success at a time of accentuated demand for social reform is made apparent, explaining his radical school designs which were linked to liberal child-centered teaching approaches. Attention is paid to those areas of education particularly close to Newsom's heart--the arts, outdoor camps and expeditions, and the reconciliation of war-torn nations through overseas exchanges.
