The Biographical Record Of The Class Of Seventy, Yale College, 1870-1904 - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Behind the familiar name of Yale lies a vivid tapestry of individual lives, ambitions and destinies. Lives behind the ivy walls. The Biographical Record of the Class of Seventy, Yale College, 1870-1904 gathers concise sketches of the class of 1870, tracing their journeys from New Haven into law, commerce, the ministry, public office and private life. As a Yale alumni biographical record and college class biography collection, it opens a window onto Yale College 19th century experience and the world its graduates went on to shape. Compiled soon after the period it covers, the volume stands as a nineteenth century alumni directory of Gilded Age Yale graduates, illuminating elite university alumni careers during a formative era in American higher education history. Dates, kinship ties, marriages, children, callings and civic roles make it both a practical genealogy and family history reference and a rich research source for historians of Yale University history and the wider Ivy League alumni history collection. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. Presented in a careful modern edition, it retains the authentic period voice that makes a Yale University history book deeply engaging, whether approached as Yale college class history or browsed for vivid glimpses of character. Ideal for family researchers, local historians and curious general readers alike, it also rewards collectors seeking enduring testimonies from the Yale College 19th century.
