Publisher's Synopsis

There might be more books on Oxford than students who have attended the world's greatest university, but there has never been one as dynamic and exciting as 111 Places in Oxford That You Shouldn't Miss. Author Ed Glinert has sifted through all the college histories, records and lists of alumni; examined all the quads and cloisters of the great colleges; explored the glorious villages hewn from honey-dripping Cotswold stone; luxuriated in the glamorous coffee houses of High Street; imagined society's earliest motor cars built at the Morris garages; been struck dumb by the never-ending peal of bells at Tom Tower; relaxed at Carfax, the very centre of the universe; and tippled at each of the legendary pubs between St Giles and Merton.

This is a volume which will send residents into paroxysms of laughter, remind students why they're there, and warn prospective undergrads of the joys of living in one of the world's most beautiful and cleverest cities.
