KEITH M. GREENWOOD.
Robert College: The American founders.
New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. Demy 8vo. In English. [x], 246, [1] p., 12 plts. Ills. In October 1857, two young brothers .were ushered into the drawing room of Christopher Rhinelander Robert, noted New York merchant and philanthropist. They requested Robert to help finance the opening of an institution of higher learning in Istanbul." So begins the story of teh founding of Robert College, the first American institution of higher education abroad, and predecessor of Bogaziçi University, nearly one and a half centuries ago. It is first and foremost the story of the character and aspirations of Cyrus Hamlin, the driving force behind the establishment of the school, and of the complex relationship between him and the other two individuals who made the realization of this educational project possible, Christopher Robert and George Washburn. This in itself is a fascinating and compelling tale, one that will hold the attention not only of those interested in the institution itself but of a much wider readership.

As described in contemporary review in the Missionary Herald "the earlier part of Miss Kendall's journey brings out vividly the life of such unfamiliar regions as French Tonking and the provinces of Yunnan and Szechuan in West China and includes such unusual experiences as a peek into Lolo Land a stop at Tachieniu--gateway to Tibet--and a remarkable sojourn at the monastery of Omei Shan that ancient and mysterious mountain shrine of Buddhist China. The middle part of the journey follows the more usual highways down the Yangtze and north to the Wall but the route becomes adventurous again as it crosses the Gobi Desert and pushes northward through Mongolia to Siberia.
