The Reprint Society Canada, 1952. " It is really a story of bad types - a bad type of newspaper proprietor and a bad type of editor, told by a type of columnist who is certainly not squeamish. There is a sound plot that sustains interest to the very end. One can say frankly that there are no dull periods in a book with a grim subject, but salted with plenty of strong, masculine humour." -Yorkshire Evening Post critic. Teal coloured boards, attractive spine label with gilt lettering. No ownership markings in this book! Illustrated dust jacket.. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good.
316 pages. Book is in general good condition. There is some light reading wear present, but still a presentable copy. The only exception is a small inscription to the inside page.
Teal cloth with leather title block and gilt lettering to spine. Text clean, tight, bright, no marks. "A reporter's research into the identity- and anonymous activities of a dilettante revolutionary who ends up in a cold, Slav grave provides a precise, ironic and occasionally intense portrait of London's Fleet Street- and a newspaper empire which stands to fall. For the Baron, who controls twelve papers and is worth ten million, shies away from and silences the obituary on George Waterman, and in so doing whets the curiosity of Wensley, his editor, and the columnist who follows up the story which he tells. And from Waterman's mother to his young mistress-secretary, from the Continent to the Irish Sinn Fein rebellion in the '20's, the connection between the Baron and the dead traitor is established and engenders a cold interchange of blackmail. A devious drama of the gentlemen of the press--at their most ungentlemanly -- and an assured and sustained performance." (Kirkus Review)
