Benjamin Franklin, founder of America's first university, the University of Pennsylvania, hoped that its students would learn "everything that is useful and everything that is ornamental." The same might be said of the architecture of its campus, both useful and ornamental. The newest title in our highly acclaimed Campus Guide Series takes readers on an insider's tour of this historic school, unique in the Ivy League for its single urban campus. The guide presents architectural walks ofa campus that is distinguished by landmark buildings. Thomas traces the university's rich history from its founding in 1749 to the present wave of construction on the modern campus. Hand-colored maps and detailed descriptions of the buildings guide to readers on their tour.

    Get one NOW!

    A must-have for any new Penn student! Penn's inner city campus is expansive and this guide will get you to where you need to go. It also contains a great deal of information regarding the architecture and sculptures found on the campus. You can save a lot of time and energy by knowing the "short cuts" between buildings. Once you have a good feel for the campus pass this book along to a new student.

    Excellent historical/architectural overview of UPenn!!!

    We were visiting UPenn after my son was accepted there. We were scoping out the campus and neighboring community, and I wanted to know more about the history of UPenn. This book was purchased after my visit, but it does a nice job of describing the campus history and architecture (a plus, since my son is going into urban planning/architecture). Another book that I purchased for this purpose did NOT describe much of UPenn's history, and therefore was a disappointment. THIS book was not. There are plenty of photos (past and present), and some very nice maps as well for those touring campus. Definitely worth the purchase!
