    Originally published in 1926, this book contains the biography of Francis Jenkinson, a fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge, and the University Librarian for the University of Cambridge from 1889 until his death in 1923. The memoir was written by his friend H. F. Stewart, who was also a fellow at Trinity with Jenkinson. Jenkinson was a well-respected figure in University circles and was responsible for collecting the large amount of material relating to WWI now in the University Library's collection. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in Jenkinson's life and his legacy.
