| Description: |
Jan Morris has given us a brilliant and thoroughly enjoyable exploration the history, architecture, geography, and culture of one of England's most historic, beautiful, enigmatic and visited cities - Oxford. This is the perfect guide for local historians, visitors to the city, and prospective students of the famous university. |
| Synopsis: |
'Few cities,' Jan Morris observes, 'have been much more loved, loathed, and celebrated.' This book has become a classic account of the character, history, mores, buildings, climate, and people of one of Britain's most fascinating cities. 'A book of outstanding excellence, with a sweep of knowledge and a distinction of style such as I have never before encountered in a work of this sort ...Brilliant alike in observation and imagination ...brings the very stones of Oxford to life' Sunday Telegraph. |
