Cloth. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. Hardback. A Register of Admissions to King's College Cambridge 1797-1925. Slight foxing to end inside covers. Sunned spine. Slight wear to edge and corners of cloth. Mauve cloth with gilt lettering. This new edition contains the namwes of all admitted to King's between 1797 to 1925, both inclusive. I have chosen the date of commencement so as to make the record continue without interruption the list contained in Alumni Etonenses published by Thomas Harwood in 1797, which list ends with the names of those admitted to the College in 1796. The period dealt with therefore covers 128 years of the history of the College. Since the first edition was published in 1903 many things have happened. There have been many changes in the College itself, notably as regards the Provotship./ The Great War, in Cambridge, as elsewhere, has left its mark. In this record the reader will see the grievous losses which the College has sustained owing to that dread calamity, but he will also note the world-wide activities of old Kingsmen, which have survived and flourish. 651 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
