  • New B-format paperback edition.
  • Shows how there has always been two sides to the press - one that serves the public with noble intent, and another preoccupied with profit, scandal and readership numbers. This is not a modern phenomenon.
  • Looks at the early battles over regulation and licensing, as well as the influence wielded by advertisers. This is interesting to explore as the modern press currently grapples with similar issues both in-print and online.
  • Looks at how the regional press developed, rather than being entirely London centric.
