A pioneer of nursery education in inner-city areas, Margaret McMillan changed the course of British educational history. While many are aware of the various social reforms she initiated, few are familiar with the life of the woman herself. Originally published in 1989, working from her own fresh collection of Margaret McMillan’s letters and newspaper articles, Dr Bradburn tells in full the inspiring story of a cultured woman who found a new motivation. Born in America into a middle-class family in 1860, Margaret McMillan spent most of her life in Britain struggling to improve the lot of the poor and needy. Outraged by the living and working conditions of labourers in Victorian England, she turned her moral indignation into effective action by throwing herself into a campaign for a more just and compassionate society. She was a colleague of Keir Hardie, a founder member of the Independent Labour Party, and worked wholeheartedly from the 1890s for the betterment and advancement of the human race. J. B. Priestley, who knew Margaret McMillan when she was a member of the Bradford School Board, later described as ‘one of those terrible nuisances who get things done and do more good than a load of bishops’. In the light of discussions on the urgent need for urban renewal and improvements in nursery education at the time of original publication, a review of the innovative work of Margaret McMillan was timely. This well-documented biography gives fascinating glimpses of a remarkable pilgrimage whose results have not been effaced by time.

Excerpt from Portrait of a Pioneer When I first heard of Dr. Dean, three things im pressed me especially. His brave and colorful char acter; his magnificent work for the Manning; and the tragedy of his repudiation by a narrow-minded minority. Basing my story on these, I have attempted an outline of the life of one of Australia's most gifted pioneers, each maior episode being founded on fact, but colored, where necessary, by a poet's imagin ation, for I {realise that I am more of a poet than a novelist, as some of my advisers have so kindly pointed out. There are, therefore, a number of gaps in my narrative, while a number of imaginary charac ters mingle with the many who actually walked this earth in the shadow of the Colossus of the Manning. Certain unrecorded facts, indeed, have only reached me since the text went to press. Dr. Dean's adventurous life was even more exciting than I realised. He fought a duel, and changed his name, events which would have made my early chapters more stimulating had I known them sooner. In South Africa he bravely met the same official setbacks which later clouded his closing years on the Manning. However, to have dealt with these earlier misfortunes would have spoilt the balance of the book as I planned it. Again, certain lighter sides of the good Doctor's life escaped me. I am indebted, for instance, to a. Correspondent Who informs me that as an Editor Horace Dean was human enough to make an occa sional slip. As, when a meeting was held on a night so stormy that the Doctor was unable to attend. He knew the speakers and what they intended to say, so faithfully reported the meeting in the next issue of his newspaper. Unfortunately, the night was so wet that the meeting was cancelled. So the thoughtful Doctor reported a meeting that had never taken place! In forgiving such a human error, I hope that my readers will extend similar charity to my own shortcomings as a novelist.
