Trinity College was founded in 1546 by Henry VIII, who merged two
older institutions, Michaelhouse and the King's Hall. The beauty of
Trinity's courts attracts visitors from around the world, but the
College is also a thriving, modern community. This history,
published in 1906, covers the period from the foundation until the
early Victorian era, and will appeal to those interested in the
history of both the college and the University. It is divided into
chronological chapters, each illustrated by the series editor,
Edmund H. New. As Rouse Ball states, '... Trinity College Cambridge
is the largest collegiate foundation at either of the ancient
universities, and, few, if any visitors to Cambridge leave without
walking through its courts. This booklet is written in the belief
that there are many such visitors who would like to know rather
more about the College than can be learnt from a stroll round its
buildings.'
