Oxford College at Emory

In this most recent book about Oxford, Emory alumnus and Oxford native Erik Oliver tells the story of Emory’s bold beginning and the evolution of Oxford College through the campus and town buildings and landscapes. Through early sources, he re-creates long-lost and largely forgotten edifices, gives treatment of building campaigns and architectural styles, and describes the historical contexts of events, traditions, and personalities through the present day. In his dual roles as a college staff member and community planner, he also chronicled current local and regional trends and made a case for reinvestment toward a holistic and sustainable future
