There might be more books on Oxford than students who have attended
the world’s greatest university, but there has never been one as
dynamic and exciting as 111 Places in Oxford That You Shouldn’t
Miss. Author Ed Glinert has sifted through all the college
histories, records and lists of alumni; examined all the quads and
cloisters of the great colleges; explored the glorious villages
hewn from honey-dripping Cotswold stone; luxuriated in the
glamorous coffee houses of High Street; imagined society’s
earliest motor cars built at the Morris garages; been struck dumb
by the never-ending peal of bells at Tom Tower; relaxed at Carfax,
the very centre of the universe; and tippled at each of the
legendary pubs between St Giles and Merton. This is a volume which
will send residents into paroxysms of laughter, remind students why
they’re there, and warn prospective undergrads of the joys of
living in one of the world’s most beautiful and cleverest cities.
