History

Hardback. "An American in Victorian Cambridge" is a richly detailed account of student life in the Cambridge of the 1840s. The rationale for the book, which is as appealing today as it was then, is that this is pre-eminently a book about an American student at an English university. In this new edition, some substantial additions have been made. Editor(s): Stray, Chris. Num Pages: 448 pages, illustrations. BIC Classification: 1DBKEAC; 3JH; BM; HBTB; JNMN. Category: (G) General (US: Trade); (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 227 x 150 x 36. Weight in Grams: 862.
