The Transatlantic Kindergarten: Education and Women's Movements in Germany and the United States by Ann Taylor Allen presents the first transnational history of the kindergarten as it developed in Germany and the United States between 1840 and World War I. Based on a large body of previously untapped sources in both countries, this new work shows how a common body of ideas and practices adapted over time to two very different political and social environments.
