Mr Hopkins' Men

Before 1850, the only pathway to an honours degree was the Mathematical Tripos - taken by all aspiring students whatever their destined careers - and the best teaching was provided by private tutors, the most renowned was William Hopkins. This book tells the story of William Hopkins and the education and careers of his top 'wranglers'.
