The book covers the period from the founding of the college in 1861 to the turn of the 20th century, which is considered the golden age of Vassar. Norris provides a comprehensive account of the college's establishment, the challenges faced by its founders, and the evolution of its academic programs and social life. She also delves into the lives of the students and faculty members who shaped the college's culture and contributed to its success. The book is filled with anecdotes and personal stories that bring the history of Vassar to life. Norris also includes photographs and illustrations that provide a visual representation of the college's early years.
