San

land for new college site

Sponsored by the Friends of the Malcolm A. Love Library, this first and only comprehensive history of the largest campus in the California State University system was originally conceived as a history through photographs by the late John Adams, whose generosity has made possible this publication. The work was subsequently expanded to become a full-scale history of the University. Separate chapters cover the founding of the institution in the 1890s in downtown San Diego, later transfer to its Park Avenue site, then another relocation to Montezuma mesa, among others.

San Diego State University: A History in Word and Image
