Cambridge

The Romans came to Cambridge in the first century A.D. They built the first bridge over the river Cam and gave the town its name. Today, Cambridge is best known for its historic university and this book visits the most famous of the colleges, traces their growth and history, and names their most famous ex-students.
But Cambridge is also the centre of the most advanced research in medicine and science, and is a thriving town in its own right. Old meets the new in every aspect of life in Cambridge, a fascinating insight into one of Britain´s most fascinating towns.
