This book provides a comprehensive account of the history and administration of land grants for education in the five states of the Northwest Territory. Beginning with the Northwest Ordinance of 1787, which set aside land for public education in the region, Knight traces the development and implementation of land grant policies through the 19th and early 20th centuries. His analysis sheds light on the challenges and opportunities that the land grant system presented for the development of education and agriculture in the region, and offers valuable insights into the history of American education more broadly.
