Since 1786, the paper has covered local events, and reporter Len Barcousky is a part of this long tradition. This collection of his \"Eyewitness\" columns draws on next-day stories to tell the history of the city, from President Coolidge's almost-silent visit in 1927 to a report on the first woman hanged in Allegheny County.
