Su questo libro

L'autore:

Lawrence S. (Bo) Connor began his forty-one-year career at The Star in 1949 as a police reporter and retired in 1990 as managing editor. He worked in nearly every editorial position on the paper, including a three-month stint as editor of the editorial page. He served three years in the Army Air Corps during World War II and began work at The Star after graduating from the University of Notre Dame in 1949. He and his wife, Patty, are the parents of six children and grandparents of 15. They live in Indianapolis. This is Connor’s second book. Hampton Court, Growing up Catholic in Indianapolis between the Wars was published in 1994 by Guild Press of Indiana.

Dalla seconda/terza di copertina:

The Indianapolis Star enjoyed dominance throughout the state with a circulation at its high point of 275,000. The stories: the high-intensity stuff of which daily news was made in those days: The Fairgrounds Coliseum blows up, killing 74; Serial killer Charles Manson is a Hoosier; Personal courage abounds as the city survives century’s worst blizzard in 1978; a two-headed baby is born and The Star reporter lives on site to help and get her scoop.
