The University of Cambridge has always inspired artists and
writers, and these sumptuous volumes from 1840 portray some of its
most important historic buildings, institutions and people. Each
volume includes a collection of essays, anecdotes, poems and
reminiscences on the colleges, museums, gardens, streets and
character of the town, as well as historical essays on the Boat
Race and university teaching. The many illustrations of major
sights and important views, such as the Backs, the river Cam and
Grantchester meadows, include works by or after several well-known
artists, engraver Charles George Lewis and landscape painter John
Murray Ince among them. With contributors drawn from the various
colleges, the volumes include much interesting material on the
history and customs of the University up to 1840. This miscellany
is an ideal gift or collector's item for all those interested in
the University of Cambridge.
