| Publisher Description: For almost two hundred years, Saint Louis University has fulfilled the Jesuit promise to educate mind, body, and spirit. As an institution of higher learning, the university-known familiarly as SLU-has served students from the region and around the globe. In A Concise History of Saint Louis University, SLU professor emeritus of history and prolific author William Barnaby Faherty, S.J., encapsulates the school's rich heritage and traditions. Faherty documents the university's growth and development with profiles on presidents, distinguished alums, buildings, athletics, and other features. A brief, engaging overview, A Concise History of Saint Louis University delivers more than just historical information, it tells the story of a venerable and cherished Jesuit institution. |
