The Tar Heels Volume Two is the second issue of Ron Smith's series on the comprehensive history of UNC Basketball. After great success with Volume One, Ron continues the story with unique insight on Dean Smith's arrival as head coach. And, how he was able to recruit Bob Lewis, Larry Miller, and Charlie Scott, who, along with Larry Brown and Billy Cunningham played key roles in the program's success.

This volume covers the 1961 through 1969 seasons. Like Volume One, each season will include team rosters, season results, season stats and player bios. Ron covers unique insight and details about Dean Smith and the early years of the program under his leadership. Volume two will also include photos that have never been published and other cool images from the 60's. 

We are also exited to share that the foreword is written by renowned Hall of Fame sports writer and UNC Alum, Curry Kirkpatrick. And- UNC Alum and Hall of Fame Cincinnati Reds broadcaster, Marty Brennaman was so thrilled with Volume One, he was eager to help with Volume Two and has written a 60's summary in the book.  Volume Two covers the 1961-1969 seasons and has 320 pages with over 500 images. Most images have never been published. This coffee table quality, hard cover book is also a collectable and reference book and is 9.75" x 12".
