First time posting here. I'd like to say I have really been enjoying Lewis Bowling's book, Duke Basketball: A Pictorial History. It is really well put together and tells a story with great historical photos. Well done Lewis!! It got me wondering about some of the other very early Duke teams. Looking around the internet led me to the Duke archives and I discovered that the Chronicle is online back to 1905 and the Chanticleer is online back to 1912. The Chanticleer has team photos and summaries, but the early Chronicles do not have as many photos.
So, my question is for you historians or any others interested, where might I find team photos of the 4 teams from 1907-1911, and some summaries (rather than scouring through old Chronicles)?
And I know there are a lot of great books out there on Duke Basketball but I would recommend Lewis Bowling's book for a lot of the early history and photos of The Brotherhood :)
Go Duke!!
