The History of the College of William and Mary: From Its Foundation, 1660 to 1874 is a comprehensive account of the history of one of the oldest and most prestigious institutions of higher education in the United States. Written by the College of William and Mary itself, the book offers a detailed and authoritative overview of the college's founding, growth, and development over a period of more than two centuries.The book begins with a detailed description of the college's founding in 1660, when it was established as a ""free school"" by the Virginia General Assembly. It goes on to chart the college's early years, including its struggles to survive in the face of financial difficulties and political turmoil, as well as its efforts to establish itself as a leading center of learning in the American colonies.As the book progresses, it provides a detailed account of the college's growth and development over the centuries, including its role in the American Revolution, its expansion during the antebellum period, and its struggles during the Civil War and Reconstruction. Along the way, the book also explores the many notable figures who have been associated with the college over the years, including Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, and James Monroe, among others.Throughout the book, the authors offer a rich and detailed account of the college's history, drawing on a wide range of primary sources to paint a vivid picture of the college's past. With its comprehensive scope and authoritative voice, The History of the College of William and Mary is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of higher education in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
