Harvard University Handbook

Harvard University Press has partnered with De Gruyter to make available for sale worldwide virtually all in-copyright HUP books that had become unavailable since their original publication. The 2,800 titles in the “e-ditions” program can be purchased individually as PDF eBooks or as hardcover reprint (“print-on-demand”) editions via the “Available from De Gruyter” link above. They are also available to institutions in ten separate subject-area packages that reflect the entire spectrum of the Press’s catalog. More about the E-ditions Program »

Designed primarily as a convenient guide book to the University for summer visitors and Tercentenary guests, this little volume resembles Baedeker in providing much incidental historical and architectural description. A completely up-to-date treatment, it gives a concise description of the material in the principal Museums of the University. The numerous illustrations will help the reader at a distance to gain a comprehensive idea of the grounds and buildings of Harvard. To those contemplating a trip to the University, it will of course be indispensable.
