Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Andrew Dickson White (November 7, 1832 November 4, 1918) was a U.S. diplomat, historian, and educator, best known as the co-founder of Cornell University. Andrew Dickson White was born on November 7, 1832 in Homer, New York to Clara (née Dickson) and Horace White. Clara was the daughter of Andrew Dickson, a New York State Assemblyman, and Horace was the son of Asa White, a farmer from Massachusetts whose once successful farm was ruined by a fire when Horace was 13. Horace, despite little formal education and an impoverished background, became a wealthy merchant and, in 1839, opened a successful bank in Syracuse. Andrew Dickson White thus entered the world, never to experience the poverty his father and grandfather had. He was baptized in 1835 at the Calvary Episcopal Church on the town green in Homer.
