Newspaper Days (1922)

Theodore Dreiser

Newspaper Days is a memoir written by Theodore Dreiser, an American novelist and journalist. The book was originally published in 1922 and provides a first-hand account of Dreiser's experiences working as a newspaper reporter in Chicago during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.The memoir is divided into three parts, each of which covers a different period in Dreiser's career. Part one focuses on his early years as a struggling journalist, while part two describes his rise to prominence as a reporter for the Chicago Globe. Part three explores Dreiser's departure from journalism and his eventual transition to full-time writing.Throughout the book, Dreiser offers insights into the workings of the newspaper industry during this time period, as well as the social and political issues that shaped American society. He also provides vivid descriptions of the people and places he encountered during his career, including famous figures such as Upton Sinclair and William Randolph Hearst.Overall, Newspaper Days offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of journalism during the turn of the century, as well as a valuable historical perspective on the events and personalities that shaped American culture during this time period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
