Princeton and Basingstoke?!

Princeton is architecturally stunning, principally for its 19th century gothic buildings on an almost industrial scale. There are innumerable walkways between the buildings and I spent an hour just wandering about and gazing.

 

John Witherspoon (1723-1794) was the only college principal to sign the Declaration of Independence.

 

Newton, Locke and Hume, key Enlightenment figures, depicted as inspiration for Witherspoon. What is the unnamed volume? It's impossible to see its name from the other side either.

 

Rather improbably, the statue of Witherspoon was cast in 2001 in Basingstoke, one of the ugliest towns in England.
