Since its establishment in 1829, the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race is one of the most popular British sport events of the year. These days, nearly a quarter of a million people walk to the river banks to watch the race live and millions of fans follow it on television. William Fisher Macmichael, former student of Downing College, Cambridge, and late secretary of the Cambridge University Boat Club, chronicles the history of the early races from 1829 to 1869. His sources are the official club books from both universities, newspaper accounts and records from eyewitnesses. Macmichael's elaborate report is supplemented by maps of the racing courses, a name index and an introduction on rowing. Reprint of the original edition from 1870.
