About this book

West Points rolling geography originally chosen for military reasons has had a profound effect on the campus plan and architectural design. Founded in 1802 by an act of President Thomas Jefferson the campus is a showcase of austere Gothic and Romanesque designs by preeminent collegiate architect Ralph Adams Cram with notable works by Richard Morris Hunt McKim Mead & White Paul Cret and Sasaki and Associates. Beginning August 2001 West Point will celebrate its 200th anniversary with events for cadets and tourists alike.
