Oxford

Excerpt from Oxford
Most of these chapters have been filled by a brief search into my recollections of Oxford. They aim, therefore, at recording my own impressions as faithfully as the resultant stir of fancy would allow. But I am also deeply and obviously indebted to several books, and in particular to the histories of Oxford by Parker, Maxwell Lyte, and Boase; to Mr. F. E. Robinson's series of College Histories; to Reminiscences of Oxford and its companion volumes from the Clarendon Press; and, above all the rest, to Anthony a Wood, and to the Rev. Andrew Clark's perfect editions of that writer's Life and Times, and of John Aubrey's Brief Lives. The Editors of The Daily Chronicle, The Illustrated London News, and Crampton's Magazine have kindly given me permission to reprint a few pages from my contributions thereto.
