West Lafayette, IN:Purdue University Press. (2010). xiv+729pp. Illustrated. Hardcover. A very good clean copy, inside and out. Slight bump to upper spine edge of front board but otherwise in near fine condition. *"Knights of the Quill offers a unique assessment of war correspondence in Southern newspapers during the American Civil War. The men and women who covered the battles and political developments for Southern newspapers were of a different breed than those who reported the war for the North. They were doctors, lawyers, teachers, editors, and businessmen, nearly all of them with college and professional degrees. Sleeping on beds of snow, dining on raw corn and burned bread, they exhibited a dedication that laid the groundwork for news gathering in the 21st century."...rear cover.
