The book delves into the complex history of the College of New Jersey, now Princeton University, during the Revolutionary period, highlighting its struggle to balance republicanism with evangelical Calvinism. Focusing on the presidencies of John Witherspoon, Samuel Stanhope Smith, and Ashbel Green, it explores student rebellions and the eventual creation of a separate Presbyterian seminary. The narrative intertwines cultural and intellectual developments of the early republic, emphasizing the influence of Scottish common sense philosophy on education and social stability.
