Some Magazines and Magazine Makers
"Some Magazines and Magazine Makers" provides a fascinating and detailed look into the world of American periodicals and the visionary individuals who crafted them. Written by John E. Drewry, this work serves as both a survey of the magazine landscape and a tribute to the editorial skill that fueled the industry's rapid expansion during the early twentieth century.
The book examines a wide array of publications, ranging from high-brow literary reviews to mass-market weeklies, detailing their history, editorial policies, and the specific audiences they served. By focusing on the 'makers'-the editors and writers who shaped these titles-Drewry offers a human-centric view of media production. He explores how these figures navigated the challenges of a growing market and used their platforms to influence public opinion and literary taste.
As a historical record of the 1920s media environment, "Some Magazines and Magazine Makers" is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of journalism, communication studies, and the development of the modern magazine. It highlights the cultural significance of the press and the enduring impact of those who dedicated their careers to the art of the periodical.
