Sure Lee,
       You can find what I am talking about in the Prologue under Author's
Notes. Here is a short quotation but you might want to go back to the
original as this is only a sample of what he says there.

       "With conspiracy so close to the surface of the American imagination
and American reality, I can only approach with trepidation the task of
discouraging you in advance from thinking my book the chronicle of some vast
diabolical conspiracy to seize all our children for the personal ends of a
small, elite minority.
Don’t get me wrong, American schooling has been replete with chicanery from
its very beginnings.*"
