Kenneth Joel Zogry's history of the University of North Carolina's student newspaper the Daily Tar Heel (DTH) is proof that news really is the 'first rough draft of history.' His sweeping, sprawling story-by-story account of the paper's 125-plus years of publication gives the sort of unvarnished context so necessary, but so often missing, from histories of higher education.--Journal of American History A surprisingly lively and engaging survey of hundreds of thousands of articles printed in some twenty thousand issues of the University of North Carolina's (UNC) student newspaper, the Daily Tar Heel. . . . [Zogry] has given us an invaluable perspective on the period when UNC-Chapel Hill grew and developed into one of America's premier public research universities.--North Carolina Historical Review Informative and accessible, Zogry's work confirms that a free, independent press remains crucial to the healthy functioning of society and essential to understandings of the present and the past.--Journal of Southern History
