In 2005 Christ's college Cambridge is celebrating its quincentenary. It was founded by a remarkable woman - the mother of a King. Its alumni include two of the intellectual giants of the West, Milton and Darwin. And it has been immortally caricatured in one of the most famous university novels of the twentieth century, The Masters by C.P. Snow. In recent years it has also nurtured a succession of outstanding historians, many of them pupils or protégés of Sir John Plumb. These chapters have been written by some of those historians - all scholars of distinction, some of them household names. Their distinctive snapshots of Christ's at different moments in time also reveal something of the rich variety of historical writing today - religious and intellectual history, biography, economics and the history of science.

Charles Darwin's years as a student at the University of Cambridge were some of the most important and formative of his life. Thereafter he always felt a particular affection for Cambridge. For a time he even considered a Cambridge professorship as a career and sent three of his sons there to be educated. Unfortunately the remaining traces of what Darwin actually did and experienced in Cambridge have long remained undiscovered. Consequently his day-to-day life there has remained unknown and misunderstood. This book is based on new research, including newly discovered manuscripts and Darwin publications, and gathers together recollections of those who knew Darwin as a student. This book therefore reveals Darwin's time in Cambridge in unprecedented detail.
