Recenzii
"Details the paper's history from its start in 1786 through wars, publishers, changing politics, journalistic evolutions, suffrage, and a strike that held a mirror to Pittsburgh. We realize, through this book, how the written news acts as a constant to the readers of a sometimes uncertain region. . . . Take the insider journey, you'll find a renewed sense of respect for the paper that made the trip."
