A history of Wellington College published for its 125th jubliee in 1992. It begins with its endowment by Sir George Grey in 1853, to its actual existence from 1867, and the landmar k years of Firth's headmastership when the school grew in size and reputation. It then passes through the years of war and depression, of building and rebuilding. It is the people and events of those years who appear in these pages, the crises and conflicts, the growth of a school community in the broadest sense, the sharing of the light to which the school motto refers, and the passing on of that light from generation to generation...
