Description:
Oxford’s university buildings are world-famous. Over eight centuries, starting in the twelfth century, the University – the third oldest in Europe – gradually occupied a substantial portion of the city, creating in the process a unique townscape containing the Bodleian Library, the Sheldonian Theatre and the Radcliffe Camera.
This book tells the story of the growth of the forum universitatis – as the architect Nicholas Hawksmoor called it – and relates it to the broader history of the University and the city. Based on up-to-date scholarship, and drawing upon the author’s own research into Oxford’s architectural history and the work of Christopher Wren, Nicholas Hawksmoor, James Gibbs and Giles Gilbert Scott, each of the eight chapters focuses on the gestation, creation and subsequent history of a single building, or pair of buildings, relating them to developments in the University’s intellectual and institutional life, and to broader themes in architectural and urban history.
Accessible and well-illustrated with plans, archival prints and specially commissioned photography, this book will appeal to anyone who wishes to understand and enjoy Oxford’s matchless architectural heritage.

Love these. Good quality. Wore these to the beach and in the water on vacation and also wear them several days weekly to local pool. Very comfortable.

Wide toe box
The color is pretty on these water shoes. The toe box on these shoes is wide which collects water making it difficult to use them walking for exercise in the water. I bought these specifically to keep my feet protected. The sole is the perfect thickness needed but can’t use them for what they were bought for.

Good and affordable
Size: 6-7 Women/5-6 Men, Color: 1a-stripe Black-2
Pretty good and effective for the price! I wore these to volcano bay in Orlando and they got the job done. While these water shoes have great comfort, traction, versatility, and water resistance, they don’t have a lot of support on the sides of the shoe. They also are tight/snug around the ankles. Theyre very lightweight and can bend and fit in a fanny pack or purse, but if you’re looking for a supportive water shoe, these aren’t it. But if you need something to just get the job done so you can have fun, these are it!

Solid and comfy
Size: Medium, Color: Black (001)/Jet Gray
Absolutely love these sports bras. They’re simple and solid, and I love the colors! They do run small, so I’m glad I sized up. I’m usually a small, but got a medium and they fit perfectly. For reference I’m 5’5”, 125lbs, 34B. They wash well too! Just make sure to air dry them and wash on cold only.
