Peterhouse is a historical book written by Thomas Alfred Walker, published in 1906. The book is a detailed account of the history of Peterhouse, one of the oldest and most prestigious colleges at the University of Cambridge. It covers the foundation of the college in 1284 by Hugh de Balsham, Bishop of Ely, and its subsequent growth and development over the centuries. The book also provides insights into the social, cultural, and intellectual life of the college, including its famous alumni, such as John Milton, William Wordsworth, and Lord Kelvin. The author has used various sources, including college records, manuscripts, and personal accounts, to provide a comprehensive and engaging narrative of the college's history. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Cambridge University or the development of higher education in England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
