'Few cities,' Jan Morris observes, 'have been much more loved, loathed, and celebrated.'

This book has become a classic account of the character, history, mores, buildings, climate, and people of one of Britain's most fascinating cities.

'A book of outstanding excellence, with a sweep of knowledge and a distinction of style such as I have never before encountered in a work of this sort ...Brilliant alike in observation and imagination ...brings the very stones of Oxford to life' Sunday Telegraph.
Industry Reviews
`Surely no one has ever celebrated any city with such fluent, persuasive and utterly charming prose as Jan Morris celebrates Oxford here.' Scotsman
