| Publisher Description: Princeton is many things to many people, from those who have attended this great university to casual visitors who come to appreciate the extraordinary architecture or the spacious and tranquil surroundings. The great gift of this book is that it touches on so many aspects of the Princeton experience through a remarkable and entirely new collection of photographs. Robert Gambee explores the fascinating history of the university and the glories and richness of the architecture, including the intriguing--and sometimes bizarre--gargoyles that are hidden in plain sight. With more than three hundred new images of the community, from pre-Revolutionary homes to a new neuroscience building under construction, choir schools, secondary schools, the Seminary, and the University itself, this is the most complete book on Princeton. |
