Have lots of books on Georgetown history & this has trivia didn't know. What I really like is this is packed w/ pictures from all decades.

As a former student, this book is an entertaining pictorial journey through the years at Georgetown University.The school sure has changed over the years.I enjoyed the travels.

Much fun to be found in this book, along with fascinating pictures and captions. Great work, men!

I very much enjoyed this book about the history of Georgetown. It was very pleasant to read, I learned a lot, and I even found myself reading lots of sections out loud to my spouse!The authors clearly put in an enormous amount of time and effort to do the research and to present the everything so effectively in pictures and words. I benefited enormously from that effort as a reader, and I'm sure many others will feel the same.

This was a fascinating read. The book captures the history of Georgetown University from its founding through the 1970's. The historic photos and documents are a treasure. You learn so much about an organization by understanding its history and O'Neill and Smith do a great job in bringing the history of the University to life. I highly recommend this book to all Georgetown students and alumni.

O'neill and Williams provide a snapshot view of one of the oldest elite universities in the country. The pictures, many of which have never been brought together before, visualize the growth of a school and community, while the captions share the interesting 200+ year history of "the school on the hilltop." A definite must have for any Georgetown student, parent or alumnus, alike. Some really cool pictures, a neat story and a great book. Bravo!

This book truly captures the essence of what makes Georgetown such a special place. The images offer a fascinating glimpse of a school that grew with our nation, and the captions are succinct and insightful. Certainly an interesting read for any history buff, but a must-have for anyone with ties to the university.
