Veritas Harvard College and the American Experience

The fascinating story of Harvard College and the American experience. Schlesinger recounts the highs and lows of its leadership from Puritan times to the present, and provides lively details of its college life since 1636. In a very real sense, Harvard and America have grown up together. Andrew Schlesinger's fascinating book traces that intertwined history and evolution brilliantly, from the humble years of the early 17th century to the worldwide pre-eminence today. The story will have broad appeal well beyond the Harvard community because of its extraordinary glimpse of the American experience as a whole. --Senator Edward M.
