Author inscription that reads: "This is for the private library of Richard C. Brownlee for whom I have the highest esteem Frank Luther Mott". The main object of this new revision was to provide a succinct account of the development of journalism in the United States during the decade of the 1950's. Additions to the Bibliographical Notes appended to all the earlier sections have been made; moreover in an attempt to increase their usefulness by by citing recently published books of acknowledged value. In the new section on the 1950's the author sought to give full recognition to the changes brought about in journalism by the electronic medial and the growth of what was ten called the :mass audience". The author believed these developments were of crucial importance. The author's purpose from the first has been to provide a comprehensive work in which historical narrative is combining with some of the characteristics of a reference book. Frank Luther Mott April 4 1886 - October 23 1964 was an American academic historian and journalist who won the 1939 Pulitzer Prize for History for Volumes II and III of his series A History of American Magazines. In 1959 he won the Bancroft Prize in History. Mott earned his Ph.D. in 1928 from the University of Iowa while a professor there. In 1962 Mott published Time Enough a collection of autobiographical essays. Professor Mott has written a distinguished history of the American newspaper. This book covers 270 years of American news-hawking. Beginning with the first news-sheets in New England the Middle States and the South it proceeds to the Revolutionary press to what the author designates as the "Early Period 1783-1801" to the "Party Press of the Middle Period 1801-1833" to the political newspapers of the Later Period 1833-1860. This constitutes the first half of the book. With the Civil War and Reconstruction the second period of American journalism begins marked by the rise of the independent press 1872-1892 by the rise and fall of yellow journalism1892-1914 the growth of the great modern newspapers 1914-1940 and finally addresses the decade of the 1950s. The scope is large and the material well integrated and the whole makes a sound solid history of American journalism. The chief characteristics of this book are its grasp of detail its attention to mechanical and technical aspects of the profession and its emphasis upon the impact that dominant personalities made upon the history of journalism—men like Horace Greeley Henry J. Raymond Charles A. Dana James Gordon Bennett Joseph Pulitzer William Randolph Hearst and Edward Wylles Scripps. The Macmillan Company hardcover

Frank Luther Mott April 4 1886 – October 23 1964 was an American academic historian and journalist who won the 1939 Pulitzer Prize for History for Volumes II and III of his series A History of American Magazines. Journalism in the United States began humbly and became a political force in the campaign for American independence. Following independence the first amendment to the U.S. Constitution guaranteed freedom of the press and freedom of speech. The American press grew rapidly following the American Revolution. The press became a key support element to the country's political parties but also for organized religious institutions. During the 19th century newspapers began to expand and appear outside the cities of the Eastern United States. From the 1830s onward the penny press began to play a major role in American journalism. Technological advancements such as the telegraph and faster printing presses in the 1840s helped expand the press of the nation as it experienced rapid economic and demographic growth. By 1900 major newspapers had become profitable powerhouses of advocacy muckraking and sensationalism along with serious and objective news-gathering. In the 1920s technological change again changed American journalism as radio began to play a new role followed by television in the 1950s and internet in the 1990s. Macmillan hardcover
