Reviews
"An essential primer on Georgetown University's storied history as told through its buildings and landscapes. Vivid photographs from the past and from today bring this campus tour to life. Visitors, students, and alumni will learn much from this architectural history of one of America's most important Catholic universities."?Margaret M. Grubiak, professor of architectural history, Villanova University "Thoroughly researched and expertly written, Dr. Rufino's book takes the reader on a grand tour of one of America's oldest universities and its ever-evolving built environment. A must read for those interested in Georgetown University's campus from the early days of the capital city to the present day."?Lauren Oswalt McHale, president, The L'Enfant Trust "An essential primer on Georgetown University's storied history as told through its buildings and landscapes. Vivid photographs from the past and from today bring this campus tour to life. Visitors, students, and alumni will learn much from this architectural history of one of America's most important Catholic universities."?Margaret M. Grubiak, professor of architectural history, Villanova University "With engaging prose and rich illustrations, Georgetown University: An Architectural History provides a captivating guide to the buildings and landscapes that have shaped one of the nation's most influential universities and to the shifting currents in American architecture that have left their mark on this ever-evolving campus."?Sheila Crane, associate professor and chair of architectural history, University of Virginia "Read front to back, or referenced while walking the campus, Rufino's guidebook of Georgetown University is both carefully crafted and beautifully illustrated. By enlivening the university's buildings and landscapes, the book animates the lives of the Jesuits, teachers, enslaved workers, and students who have defined this institution for more than two centuries."?Elizabeth Ann Milnarik, AIA, architectural historian "In this architectural survey of Georgetown University, Rufino brings a nuanced understanding of buildings as cultural signposts. As the country's first Jesuit institution, the campus grew in tandem with the nation's capital?first under Archbishop John Carroll, then under the shadow of slavery through the antebellum years, and more recently with the preservation movement of the 1960s. Her book offers both a detailed guide for specialists and an engaging read for students of Washington history."?Phil Jacks, professor emeritus, George Washington University
