Seller's Description:
Near Fine in Near Fine jacket. First edition. 262pp. Light offsetting on front endpapers (from something once laid in), boards lightly toned at edges, near fine in a near fine dust jacket with modest edgewear. Seven years after graduating high school the author disguises himself as a seventeen-year-old to endure twelfth grade all over again and find out what happened to teenagers since the 1960s ended. A review from *The Washington Post* in 1981 concluded: "Beneath its wry humor, David Owen's High School presents a bleak view of American education." Owen won an Alicia Patterson Journalism Fellowship in 1984 to research and write about standardized testing in the American education system. He has been a staff writer for *The New Yorker* since 1991.
