"A GREAT AND GOOD WORK": A HISTORY OF LAWRENCE UNIVERSITY (1847-1964) by Charles Breunig Unabridged and Unrevised Version Appleton, Wisconsin 1994 INTRODUCTORY NOTE This manuscript is an unabridged and unrevised version of the book published by the Lawrence University Press in 1994 with the title "A Great and Good Work": A History of Lawrence University (1847-1964). It contains in many places more detail than what appears in the published work. It is organized somewhat differently from the published version with separate chapters on the conservatory of music, the trustees, and athletics. Some, though not all, of the material from these chapters is integrated into the narrative of the published history. An expanded table of contents listing sub-sections within each chapter will enable readers to turn to topics in which they may be particularly interested.
