Item description from seller

Light wear to tips, corners, and edges of the book and jacket, price clipped. First printing, no others noted. From "An Introductory Note to the May Manuscript of theHistory of the University of Rochester" by the university library special collections. "Upon his retirement in 1964 after almost 40 years of teaching European history at the University of Rochester, Professor Arthur J. May was appointed University Historian to write a history of the University. He and his two research assistants had nearly completed the first draft at the time of his sudden and unexpected death in June 1968. The assistants finished researching and writing two more chapters before the office closed the next year.The manuscript draft, thorough and detailed, was too long to publish as a single volume. But to make it more immediately useful, Karl S. Kabelac of the library staff was employed in 1971 to create an index to it. This index has greatly added to its usefulness, and can be accessed below. Several years later, Lawrence E. Klein, UR 1971, was employed to abridge the manuscript to book length." This volume is that abridged version of Professor May's manuscript. Every effort is made to ship all books and other items within 24 hours. Clean recycled packing material will be used when possible. The Book Shed has a been a member of the Vermont Antiquarian Bookseller's Association since 1997. An online bookseller with a bookshop sensibility.
