Excerpt from The Colleges of Oxford: Their History and Traditions, XXI Chapters Contributed by MembersIt is only fair to the writers of the separate chapters to say that the limits of length imposed on them, and the selection of subjects for special treatment, are not of their own choosing. Space for fuller treatment in each case is of necessity wanting, but somewhat greater lati tude has been allowed to those less fortunate Colleges which have no history of their own, extent or in pros peot. Colleges which have found their historian, will not, it is hoped, grudge their sisters this consolation.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
