Description

This comprehensive history of the British newspaper explores its evolution from the early 17th century to the present day. From its emergence as a radical force in the 19th century to its current role in shaping public discourse, Kevin Williams examines the changing form and content of newspapers over time.

The book delves into key topics such as the impact of new technology on reporting techniques, the development of regional newspapers, and forms of press regulation. With lively examples, Williams illustrates the newspaper's social, political, economic, and cultural context, making this an ideal text for students of journalism and the British newspaper.
