Book Synopsis
Presents the story of growth of a relatively small school to an internationally known and respected university. This title offers the history of Auburn University's President's Home from its construction as a WPA project on 'Ag Hill' in 1938 to the author's tenure as the University's first lady from early 2004 until the summer of 2007.

Trade Review
Nell Richardson takes us on a wonderful journey with those who lived in and took great care of a significant piece of Auburn history - not just the physical structure of the president's home, but of the experiences and emotions that seep through the cracks today. Richardson's generous spirit in sharing the experiences and life-changing events of API's and Auburn's first families makes this an excellent contribution. The term 'Auburn family' is not used lightly, and the relationships expounded upon in this book provide a peek into how all first families were actually part of a much larger lineage. Hats off Nell Richardson! - Debbie Shaw '84, Vice President for Alumni Affairs and Executive Director Auburn Alumni Association
