4.0 out of 5 stars
The quintessential New England liberal arts college.,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Small College in Maine: Two Hundred Years of Bowdoin (Paperback)
For those who have a connection to the College, this book offers an excellent history of Bowdoin, its founding principles, and challenges overcome.
For those who have trouble pronouncing the word Bowdoin (Boe'-din), prepare to be introduced to an institution that is every bit what makes some people swear by the magic of a classical New England liberal arts education

A well written and illustrated history,
By Smile of Reason (Covington, LA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Small College in Maine: Two Hundred Years of Bowdoin (Paperback)
A well written and illustrated history of one of America's better liberal arts colleges. The book is large. The black and white and colot illustrations are very good. The author has also written a very good travel book about Maine. My only criticism is that the book lacks recent photos of the campus and a campus map. The campus is usually rated as one of the 10 most beautiful in America. An earlier book about the architecture of the buildings is out of print. This book is well worth the modest price.
