First published: 1999
Description: "From the arrival of the penny papers in the 1830s to the coming of radio news around 1930, the American newspaper celebrated its Golden Age and years of greatest influence on society. Douglas tells the story of the great innovators of the American press - men like Bennett, Greeley, Bryant, Dana, Pulitzer, Hearst, and Scripps.

He details the development of the bond between newspapers and the citizens of a democratic republic, and how the newspapers molded themselves into a distinctly American character to become an intimate part of daily life."--BOOK JACKET.
