Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the vision, founding, and early years of the American University, a Methodist Episcopal institution in Washington D.C. The author, clearly an adept historian, delves into the political and social contexts of its inception, while chronicling the challenges the university faced during WWI. The depth of analysis also captures the spirited optimism of the time, notably by including the transcript of the convocation held in 1921, featuring speeches by prominent figures such as President Harding, Newton W. Rowell, President of the University John W. Hamilton, and others. The author expertly weaves together speeches, historical records, and first-hand accounts to tell the tale of the university's founding. This book will appeal to anyone interested in a detailed history of the university, its relationship to the social and political climate of its time, and the broader history of American higher education.
