Originally published fifty years ago, "Princeton, 1746-1896" has
taken its place as one of the best institutional histories in
America. Yet the book is more than an institutional history just as
Princeton University, with its complex religious and political
roots and impressive list of faculty and alumni, is more than
simply a college. "Princeton, 1746-1896" will be valued by some
readers as a rich and well-documented commentary on education in
early America, and by others as a fascinating collection of
biographies of some of the more influential people in American
history, including Princeton University President and, later, U. S.
President, Woodrow Wilson.
Originally published in 1996.
The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand
technology to again make available previously out-of-print books
from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
These paperback editions preserve the original texts of these
important books while presenting them in durable paperback
editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly
increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the
thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since
its founding in 1905.
