23rd Sep '03History of First Trinityby mcp
In 1908, Walter William Rouse Ball, a mathematics lecturer and fellow of Trinity College, compiled a short history of First Trinity Boat Club. Both the Trinity College Library and the University Library hold copies. I looked it up when researching the club's crest and having found it interesting thought it might be nice to have it online.

And so here it is (in the Club->History section).

I realise not everyone will find themselves inclined to read it, but there are at least a few comedy stories worth looking up - e.g. the 4th VIII's exploits 1850-57.

The top of page contents summary is something I have added - suggestions for improvement would be welcomed, as would typing mistakes.

The book's final chapter contains data and crew lists for the winners of various races; this will be appended in due course.
