Purchase options and add-ons

During the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Britain, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa were increasingly drawn together by an imperial press system. This is the first scholarly study of the development of that system. Simon J. Potter examines key debates during episodes such as the South African War and the First World War, and reveals the ambiguous impact of the system on local, national, and imperial identities.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"...Potter's deceptively short monograph displays journalistic precision, brevity, and accessibility without sacrificing scholarly rigor and sophistication....This book will be a valuable contribution to British imperial history as well as to media studies. In our globalized age of twenty-four hour television news networks and live feeds via satellite it is also a timely reminder of the potent mix of news, money and national and international identities."--The Albion Journal

"Potter has written a superb book that makes an essential revisionist contribution to imperial and media historiographies."--Journalism Studies

"Overall this is an excellent book that in many ways embodies the better qualities of the subject it analyzes. Potter's deceptively short monograph displays journalistic precision, brevity, and accessibility without sacrificing scholarly rigor and sophistication."--Albion
