Ten years after the first [Waldorf] school was established in Stuttgart in 1919, Waldorf schools had been started in Switzerland, the Netherlands, England, Norway, Hungary, Canada, and the United States. As one reads, one gradually becomes aware of an enormous global network of people, all of them inspired by the groundbreaking insights Steiner gave. …[T]he book reads like a novel. It is indeed a breathtaking saga and never becomes dull; the narrative is couched in biographical events, which make for gripping reading.” – Christof Wiechert (from his Foreword) Read more ISBN10 1943582610 ISBN13 978-1943582617 Language English Publisher Waldorf Publications Dimensions 7 x 1.61 x 10 inches Item Weight 2.69 pounds Print length 712 pages Publication date January 15, 2025
