John Martin Frederick Wright offers a lively account of Cambridge
University in Alma Mater; Or, Seven Years at the University of
Cambridge. Published anonymously in 1827, Wright's two-volume work
captures the triumphs and tribulations of undergraduate life at
Cambridge, based upon his own years as an aspiring mathematician at
Trinity College. This second volume covers Wright's last two
undergraduate years and experiences as a private tutor, together
with copies of examinations and lists of scholarships available at
all the colleges. Wright dedicated his career as a writer and
private tutor to helping students succeed at university, and Alma
Mater is designed to offer parents and aspiring students insight
into the preparations, intellectual as well as financial, necessary
for achievement. A spirited defence of Cambridge traditions in the
face of broader educational reforms, Alma Mater also brings to life
a period of intense intellectual activity in British mathematics.
