First published in 1987, this is a comprehensive analysis of the
rise of the British Press in the eighteenth century, as a component
of the understanding of eighteenth century political and social
history. Professor Black considers the reasons for the growth of
the "print culture" and the relations of newspapers to magazines
and pamphlets; the mechanics of circulation; and chronological
developments.
Extensively illustrated with quotations from newspapers of the
time, the book is a lively as well as original and informative
treatment of a topic that must remain of first importance for the
literate historian.
