Beschreibung:
Anyone who attended the University or who is interested in the growth of Canada’s intellectual heritage will enjoy this compelling and magisterial history.
'In forty-two chapters, [Martin Friedland] narrates the comprehensive history of the University of Toronto from its first abortive charter to the advent of a new president in the year 2000. The author's range is impressive. He touches almost all bases, from astronomy to athletics, administration to archaeology, giving us the history of every division, every era, and every presidency along with much more. -- Michael Bliss, Professor of History, University of Toronto Lucid, engrossing, and often surprising, Martin Friedland's history depicts a small colonial university's ascent to its present life as the core of Canadian education and a world centre for scholarship. Miraculously, he draws all the complexities of idealism, ambition, and politics into a cohesive narrative. -- Robert Fulford
