Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Celebrated Cambridge Men: A. D. 1390-1908 An attempt has been made in the following pages to furnish some account, at once chronological both Church and State, who have been trained at the University of Cambridge. Some sort of idea is doubtless commonly held, that certain "worthies" were connected with certain colleges, but the knowledge on such matters is, as a rule, vague and indefinite, and far from being exact. The endeavour, therefore, has been to give an ordered list of famous men, now departed, arranged according to the date at which they came to Cambridge, to record the college or colleges with which they were connected, the friends with whom they associated, the honours and positions to which they attained in the University, and therewith also to convey some brief account of the achievements in later life for which they are renowned. Viewed in this way, it is hoped that, for some, at least, the story of the days that are past will gain in clearness, and the doings of the men who once trod the familiar courts will stand out in less uncertain light, so that "he who runs may read," and may know how great a part the Cambridge training has played in fitting men to be good servants of the Kingdom and Empire.
