Nearly Everybody Read It : Snapshots of the Philadelphia Bulletin

Not so long ago, everybody who wanted the news read it in the newspaper. And in Philadelphia, nearly everybody read the Bulletin. This paper served the city for almost 135 years. By the time its last edition came off the presses on Jan. 29, 1982, it had enjoyed over 75 years as the city's dominant newspaper, as well as many years as the largest evening newspaper in all of N. Amer. The Bulletin's most striking accomplishment was its ability to inspire fierce loyalty in its staff. Here, former reporters & editors share their favorite memories of this venerable Phila. institution. Their absorbing, often humorous accounts bring readers into the world of journalism as it used to be. B&W photos.Binzen, Peter is the author of 'Nearly Everybody Read It : Snapshots of the Philadelphia Bulletin', published 2001 under ISBN 9780756751494 and ISBN 0756751497.
