Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Biographical Catalog of the Matriculates of Haverford College, Together With Lists of the Members of the College Faculty and the Managers, Officers and Recipients of Honorary Degrees, 1833-1922 In the Spring of 1900 was published the first edition of this Catalog. It was the result of six years of work on the part of an Alumni Committee, of which George Gluyas Mercer, ´77, was Chairman, and which included Charles Roberts, ´64, Edward Y. Hartshorne, ´81, Barker Newhall, ´87, and Franklin B. Kirkbride, ´89. This Committee was fortunate in securing the services of Professor Allen Clapp Thomas, ´65, as Editor, and the accuracy and completeness of the original edition were largely due to his painstaking research. From the publication of the first catalog up to the time of his death, Professor Thomas carefully set down in the margins of the book such changes as came to his attention, and this annotated copy has been of great assistance to the present Committee. The College Records and Alumni Notes from the files of the Haverford News and the Haverfordian have given much information, and the Endowment Fund Campaign, which brought a great majority of the Alumni into close communication with the College, opened a rich source of new material. Questionnaires covering all essential biographical details were returned by over 1450 matriculates during 1920, and in addition, a good deal of information was obtained about men who had died since graduation. When all this information had been collated and put in the form adopted for the present edition, to each living matriculate was mailed a typewritten copy of his own history for corrections or additions. The present volume embodies the result of these inquiries. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
