SHollis' Boo]
Is Praised ]
By Billy Mishoe t
Staff Writer
I The "Saturday Review of Liter
atutre" recently published a review
. of Dr. Daniel Walker Hollis' book,
3 "College to University, Volume
II.' This book continues the his
r tory of the university from 1865
Sto 1950.
t The account in "Saturday Re
view" states that "in the second <
and concluding volume, Professor
Hollis covers the turbulent years <
l from 1865 to 1956, during which <
the university was reorganized six I
times and, in Reconstruction days, I
became the only Southern univer
sity attended by both Negro and
white students."
It added that "Throughout, Pro
fessor Hollis' approach is one of
critical open-mindedness; the
result is a superior university his
tory."
Favorable reviews were also
given the book in other publica
tions. "The Georgia Historical
Quarterly" stated: "At the outset
it should be said that this is a
distinguished work, written by a
thoroughly competent scholar in
an interesting and readable style.
It is not cluttered up with a mass
of meaningless details, but never
theless it does contain a great deal
of factual material, but so woven
together and so interpreted as to
make an unusually readable nar
Irative."
"The .Journal of Southern His
tory" also reviewed the book and
included the following comments:
"In telling the story of the uni
versity, Professor Hollis has, as
in his first volume, related the
history of the state also. His
background and training as a his
torian have given him a valuable
perspective on his complicated
materials, and although his story
is dramatic he has told it objec

"There is no chauvinism in his
ssessment of the conversatism of

,he social snobbery of its post

n the faculty's unwillingness to

3ut there is genuine appreciation
'or the true value of tradition and
sense of its continuity in the

rersity's existence." This review
loses by saying that "This is a
ompetent history, one of the best
iistories of a state university yet
