Description

"Bertrand Hallward has been described as one of the great university builders of the twentieth century. This biography follows the course of his long life, beginning with an Edwardian childhood and moving on to the rigours of Haileybury during the 1914-1918 War, followed by undergraduate life at King's College, Cambridge, in the heady days of the early 1920's." "After a brilliant degree in Classics, and election as a Fellow of Peterhouse, Hallward married and raised a family of four daughters. Famous at Cambridge for his gifts as a teacher, his sporting prowess and good looks, he was in 1939 appointed Headmaster of Clifton College and took the school on an adventurous evacuation to Bude, in Cornwall, after the bombing of Bristol." "In 1948 he became the first Vice-Chancellor of The University of Nottingham which, during his seventeen years in office, grew enormously in size and reputation. Then in 1965 he retired completely from public life to sail his ocean-going yacht, Delphis, in the Mediterranean for ten years, with his wife as 'mate'. After this he returned to Cambridge and mastered the secrets of longevity, watching with satisfaction as Nottingham rose to its present eminence among Britain's universities."--BOOK JACKET.
