This book describes the origin, growth, and achievements of school broadcasting in Canada. Sections are devoted to the start of school broadcasting in each province, the establishment of national school broadcasts, and the work of the National Advisory Council on School Broadcasting. In the story, the part played by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation in initiating and promoting the work of teaching by radio and in providing the facilities upon which it is based, is a significant one.


The book is the first authoritative description, by the man largely responsible for its success, of an important and fruitful experiment in federal-provincial co-operation in the thorny field of education. To this co-operation is due the high standard of the school broadcasts which have earned for Canada world-wide recognition and appreciation. The book also describes the international aspects of this cooperation, particularly between Canada and Australia, Great Britain, and the United States.

Richard S. Lambert (1894-1981) was a biographer, popular historian, and broadcaster. He served for twelve years (1927-1938) as founding editor of the BBC's weekly literary and educational journal The Listener. He was also one of the first governors of the British Film Institute. From 1943 to 1960, he was Supervisor of School Broadcasts for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. Mr. Lambert is the author of some thirty books on a wide range of subjects including biography, history and travel.
