About this title

Synopsis

Were the challenges and motivations of journalists who lived and worked in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries similar to those of today? Lessons from the Past provides the opportunity to discover the answer from the "voices" of people who loved their job and saw what they did as important and meaningful. Fedler has skillfully culled the personal stories of everyday journalists from a variety of sources. He presents these human narratives in a context that reveals interesting details about the evolution of newsroom roles, values, and techniques. His informative commentary ties these lively, enriching experiences to the times, rewarding students with an additional perspective on the fascinating field of journalism.
