Synopsis

Coauthors Kathy Graneggen Moberg and Catherine Walsh Davis relate the history of a unique woman's residence hall at the University of Michigan. The book spans more than a century from 1911 when the Martha Cook Building was first envisioned by U-M alumnus and donor William W. Cook, to its grand opening in 1915 to the eve of its 100th anniversary. Generously illustrated with photographs and drawings, the book details the architecture, art, and the people that turned this Collegiate Gothic structure into a home to more than 4400 women over the last 100 years.
