The legacy of Arcadia University began in 1853, when Sylvania (Jones) Stevens and Juliet A. (Poundstone) Avery, along with several other students, left their family homes and accompanied Rev. Sheridan Baker to the Beaver Female Seminary in Beaver, Pennsylvania. After graduating in 1856, they were the first students to receive diplomas from the seminary. This book concentrates on the Glenside, Pennsylvania, campus up until the school's name and status change to Arcadia University in 2001 and covers the many shifts in the school's name and location. Kenneth Samen graduated in 1992 with a bachelor of arts degree in communications from Beaver College/Arcadia University.

His research for this book led him into his personal postcard collection and the university's archives and, externally, to historical societies and institutional collections to locate images and items that have not been seen in years.
