The Encyclopaedia of Oxford

The Encyclopaedia of Oxford is an encyclopaedia covering the history of Oxford in England.

The book was published by Macmillan in 1988 (ISBN 0-333-39917-X).[1] It was edited by the Oxford-educated historian Christopher Hibbert with the help of the associate editor, his brother Edward Hibbert.

The encyclopaedia was published in hardback and then a paperback version (Papermac, reissued in 1992, ISBN 0-333-48614-5), but only one edition was produced and copies are now sought, typically selling for more than the original selling price of £25 for the hardback edition, even in paperback form.[2][3]

The book mainly consists of detailed historical entries in alphabetical order. Many entries concern architecture and buildings,[4] and the University of Oxford and its colleges. Appendices include lists of notable people who have held important offices associated with Oxford, especially the University, in date order.
