Seller's Description:
Very Good in Very Good jacket. Size: 8x6x3; Dabney provides young aspiring journalists and historians with a history of the challenges, responsibilities, and problems that have accompanied both dedicated editorship and guardianship of the freedom of the press. Pistols and Pointed Pens depicts the colorful personalities of the 11 editors (including Thomas Ritchie, John Hampden Pleasants, George W. Bagby, and the notable black editor John Mitchell, Jr. ) who had impact on the Richmond newspaper community and played important roles in both Virginia and United States politics by influencing public opinion and acting as a public conscience (some of whom became involved in duels during the nineteenth century). Quoting primary sources and recounting anecdotes, Dabney gives an entertaining, easily read, humorous account of the dangers faced by these 19th-century journalists.
