Originally published in 1947, this book presents a series of
reminiscences by Mary Paley Marshall (1850-1944), a distinguished
economist and one of the first women to study at Cambridge
University. The memoir includes beautifully written accounts of her
childhood, the beginnings of Newnham College, her time in Bristol,
travels in Sicily, a move to Oxford and her return to Cambridge
during the 1880s. Appendices and numerous illustrative figures are
also incorporated, together with an introduction by the historian
G. M. Trevelyan. This book will be of value to anyone with an
interest in Paley Marshall, Cambridge University and the history of
female education.
