The essays in this collection explore the British popular press since 1896 from Harmsworth's "Daily Mail" to Maxwell's "Mirror".

Topics include: the sorry tale of the "Daily Herald"; early dealings with the BBC; the role of photojournalism; the contribution of Reuters; and the roots of financial journalism for a mass market.

This volume demonstrates that the history of the popular press has always been about more than big headlines and big profit margins.
