QUICK, ANTHONY - Charterhouse - a History of the School

London, James and James. 1990, First. (ISBN: 0907383203). Hard Cover, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. A Fine unmarked copy (apart from a small inscription written on the small erratum slip) with Fine dustjacket which is not price clipped. 172 pages on glossy paper with 14 colour plates. The founder of Charterhouse was a successful entrepreneur who had flourished in the open and competitive society of Tudor England. Such robustness has characterised the school from its birth in 1611 - the year Thomas Sutton established a foundation for 40 scholars and 80 brethren - and its emergence as one of Britain's leading public schools. This account of the growth, the achievements, and the vicissitudes, of Charterhouse draws on thorough research. 4. Fine/Fine.
