Sobre IBD

First published in 1945, this title shows a remarkable experiment with boys. Aged from 8 to 14, these boys were the 'throw-outs' of the Evacuation Scheme. Barns was a Hostel-school initiated by the Society of Friends, where lawless boys made their own laws, and the principle instrument in their reformation was not punishment but affection.
