The Press Book

From the author of an acclaimed study on women's magazines, who was a director of Conde Nast, comes the definitive history of one of the most enduring but ever-changeable consumer items of the late twentieth and twenty-first centuries - newspapers and magazines. The Press Book details the triumphs and travails of the popular post-war press, with a litany of names that will evoke nostalgia - as well as some that provoked outrage on their emergence of a defining era.
