Description

Explore the history of British media through this detailed study of George Newnes, a prominent newspaper proprietor, publisher, and editor. This work examines his impact on the New Journalism movement in Britain between 1880 and 1910, focusing on the relationship between culture and profit. The book provides a deep look into seven of Newnes's most successful periodicals, including Tit-Bits (1881), The Strand Magazine (1891), and The Westminster Gazette (1893). By examining these publications from biographical, journalistic, and cultural perspectives, the author illustrates how Newnes shaped the media landscape. Readers will learn about his role in creating the penny miscellany paper and the short-story magazine. This text serves as a valuable resource for those interested in the history of British publishing, the evolution of journalism, and the social impact of mass-market periodicals during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
