Winner of the Carey McWilliams Award given by MultiCultural Review, 1999."Each of the essays provides a fascinating insight into a field often ignored by media historians."--Margaret A. Blanchard, Communications Bulletin Quarterly "Despite the diversity of topics and periods covered in this essay collection, it hangs together well as a book trying to address some neglected areas of research while fitting into an established historiographical framework. . . . I would encourage anyone interested in any aspect of the print culture of the modern United States to pick up this book."--Journal of the Printing Historical Society
