Joint editor Jean Spence said: "The 18 chapters in this book cover a diversity of subjects and places. Some tell the stories of events and people. Others consider the impact and relevance of organisations, movements and reports. Yet others are concerned with the value of historical understanding for contemporary community and youth work. They begin to reveal a fascinating history and have begun to uncover a vast store of archives, many of which remain to be fully explored, documented and analysed."
The themes reflect the interests and enthusiasms of the authors, who include some of the best known names in the community and youth work field in Britain, enriched by contributions from Australia, Austria and the US.
