Enter Gilded Age Yale University, as the Class of 1871 gathers in early 1900s New Haven to reflect on three and a half decades of study, work and friendship. History breathes in these pages. Prepared for their thirty-fifth anniversary in June 1906, this Yale class reunion report captures a generation of Yale University alumni whose lives carried them from post-Civil War classrooms into the modern industrial world, preserving the atmosphere of 19th century college life and the evolving traditions of an Ivy League institution. Both college alumni history book and university class record volume, it brings together personal notes from classmates, updates on careers and public service, and carefully gathered Yale University alumni biographies. For family researchers, it serves as a revealing genealogy and family history reference, rich in authentic Ivy League alumni records that anchor names and families in time and place. For scholars, it offers a focused resource for Yale historians and anyone exploring American higher education history at the turn of the twentieth century. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, this faithful reissue of a historic college reunion publication invites casual readers, descendants, and dedicated collectors alike to rediscover a remarkable class and its enduring ties to Yale.
