Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the experiences of Princeton University's class of 1859 from their matriculation in 1855 to their Decennial Reunion in 1869. This Class Record, as the author terms it, details the friendships, academic pursuits, pranks, sporting events, celebrations, and traditions enjoyed by the group over their undergraduate years. It also includes the experiences of a select group during the Civil War, the tragic death of one member, and the establishment of memorials in his honor. Most notably, the book commemorates the founding of their class prize, intended to reward future generations of undergraduates for excellence in English literature and essay writing. The author provides context for campus life during the mid-19th century and presents thoughtful reflections on themes such as the importance of friendship, the fleeting nature of time, and the profound impact of loss. This book will appeal especially to those interested in the history of Princeton University and the broader social and cultural history of the United States during the 19th century. Through the unique lens of a single graduating class, this book provides a glimpse into the challenges, joys, and enduring legacies that shape the college experience. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
