209 pages. An intimate chronicle of the people and events that have shaped the university for some 150 years. Ten prominent Canadian writers, many of them graduates or teachers from McGill, capture the spirit of the university in delightful anecdote and insightful overview, recreating the exploits and accoumplishments of its historic figures and revealing its role in the modern world. More than one hundred beautiful colour photographs, commissioned from four noted Montreal photographers, portray the McGill campus, its students, and the treasures of its libraries and museums.
