Harvard Scoundrels

Of course, Harvard is one of the most prestigious educational institutions in the world. Its imposing faculty has won far more Nobel Prizes than any other university, now approaching 170. However, a small minority of the people associated with Harvard have taken a wrong turn in life. A few of them have become felons, major pranksters, research fabricators, or powerful advocates of obnoxious ideas. This groundbreaking book takes a look at them. Many of the people described in it are like their more upright counterparts; they truly excel in their endeavors. A Harvard College dropout murdered the most renowned architect of his time on top of one of his most famous buildings in front of three hu...

Titan of the Thames

William Grenfell, Lord Desborough, was, for many, the epitome of the perfect English gentleman: an exceptional sportsman, a dedicated public servant and a devoted husband and father. Grenfell’s astounding sporting achievements, from climbing mountains to swimming the basin of the Niagara Falls twice, from rowing the English Channel and winning the Amateur Punting Championship for three years consecutively, to representing Great Britain in fencing, produced his deep-rooted belief in the importance of sport. It wasn’t surprising therefore that he became the driving force behind the 1908 London Olympic Games, an enormous success despite being staged with only two years’ notice. A surprisi...

The Butcher, The Tailor, The Picture-Frame Maker...

As she awaits her execution at Oxford Castle, a newly wed woman from a God-fearing family, convicted for murdering her housemaid, is pardoned at the last minute by King George II. A butcher suddenly disappears and changes his identity after the tragic death of his young wife. A picture-frame maker from humble origins becomes ‘the richest man in Oxford’ and is at ease socialising with the luminaries of the Victorian art world. And a lovestruck local member of parliament with a serious gambling addiction dies in suspicious circumstances. These are some of the stories of individuals connected with the land and property on Middle Way in Summertown, Oxford, where the author now lives. The book presents an alternative history of Oxford and explores how Summertown evolved from being primarily an artisans’ village to becoming a well-heeled suburb of Oxford. Extensively referenced and using archival sources and interviews, a voice is also given to the living relatives of people connected with the land and property on Middle Way.
