Vanishing One-Room Schools look at a school that has recently disappeared from the landscape. This historic country school unfortunately could not be saved, even though the building was in decent shape. The preservation of the school did not happen, but the author made certain that some recent photographs of the historic One-Room School were taken and put into this book, along with some other schools to highlight this part of American history
