This historical study of desegregation in Columbus explores the interplay of business, metropolitan development, and desegregation. The author maintains that the desegregation failed to ensure equal educational opportunity not because it was inherently detrimental to learning, but because it was intrinsically incompatible with the city's steady geographic and economic growth. Topics include the incompatibility of urban schools and residential development, and the troubling ramifications of jurisdictional fragmentation.
