The Story of Pomona College is a historical account of the founding and early years of Pomona College, a private liberal arts college located in Claremont, California. Written by Charles Burt Sumner and originally published in 1914, the book traces the college's origins back to the late 19th century when a group of Congregationalists sought to establish a new educational institution in Southern California. Sumner describes the challenges and triumphs of the college's early years, including the construction of the campus, the recruitment of faculty and students, and the establishment of academic programs. The book also highlights the role of key figures in the college's history, including its first president, James A. Blaisdell. Overall, The Story of Pomona College provides a detailed and engaging portrait of the college's formative years and its enduring commitment to academic excellence and social responsibility.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
