A history of Edinburgh's boys' schools. The High School dates back to medieval times, and Heriot's opened in 1659, but the schools really took off in the 19th century with the transformation of boarding 'hospitals' such as George Watson's and Daniel Stewart's into day schools, and the author covers those developments in detail.
