5.0 out of 5 stars
A powerful testimony not just to Hearst's life, but to the evolution of the newspaper as a whole,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: William Randolph Hearst: The Later Years, 1911-1951 (Hardcover)
WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST: THE LATER YEARS, 1911-1951 presents the second volume in a biography series which follows Hearst's life, and is a pick for college-level holdings which already have the first volume, as well as for college-level collections strong in media or journalism history. It surveys how Hearst built an empire of newspapers in nineteen of the largest cities in the U.S., and how his final forty years strengthened his hold. Previously unavailable letters and manuscripts, along with Hearst's own powerful political editorials, make for a powerful testimony not just to Hearst's life, but to the evolution of the newspaper as a whole, and its political impact on American lives.

This review is from: William Randolph Hearst: The Later Years, 1911-1951 (Hardcover)
He was bigger than life and one innovative person ...maybe the first gorilla marketer whether you agreed with him or not. Great read.
