  • The Age of Urban Democracy: England 1868 - 1914

    Donald ReadBOOKAge of Urban Democracy2014

    This ambitious survey covers all aspects of the period in which English society acquired its modern shape -- industrial rather than agricultural, urban rather than rural, democratic in its institutions, and middle class rather than aristocratic in the control of political power. For this revised edition the footnotes and bibliography have been fully updated, and the entire text has been reset in a larger and more attractive format. An ideal intro…

    Donald ReadARTICLEThe English Historical Review2005Cited by: 4

    Newspapers and Empire in Ireland and Britain: Reporting the British Empire, c.1857–1921, ed. Simon J. Potter (Dublin: Four Courts P., 2004; pp. 208. £55).

In the process, the aut…

    Donald ReadCHAPTERThe power of news1999

    At the coming of peace in 1945, the reputation of Reuters as a general news agency stood high. In the succeeding decades, the task of Reuter journalists and managers was to maintain and to develop that reputation.

  • The power of news: The history of Reuters, 1849-1989

    Donald ReadBOOKThe power of news1994Cited by: 15

    In 1851 Julius Reuter moved from Berlin to London where he and his staff of one office boy set up the telegraph office that was to evolve into one of the most powerful agencies in the world. For over a century, Reuters, as it came to be named, was the agency of the British Empire, committed to providing truth in news and doing so quickly, two standards of reporting that it maintains to this very day. And for over 150 years, Reuters has been a par…
