The Radford Normal published this book sometime in 1919 or the early 1920s. No documentary record has been found explaining why the book was published, whether it was as a yearbook for those attending Radford or if it was a recruitment pamphlet extolling the students, faculty, and activities to be found when one arrived on campus.  If one looks carefully, some of the graduation years or society initials are spelled out in the pictures.
