The Indefinable Schoolthe Story of The Edinburgh Academy 19

In 1974, to mark The Edinburgh Academy’s 150th anniversary, alumnus Magnus Magnusson released The Clacken and the Slate, a book which painted a picture of a leading educational establishment. This bold new history, released in the school’s 200th year, revisits and expands upon Magnusson’s account to tell a more far-reaching, more complex story.
