""The book's central focus is on the strategies – rhetorical, legal, political – that anti-apartheid newspapers employed to report on matters that were prohibited by the government’s strict censorship laws. Trabold presents a well-written, compelling textual analysis alongside good empirical interview material."" - Herman Wasserman, University of Cape Town
