Stephen Crane, Journalism, and the Making of Modern American Literature

Rating:
Summary: Must read for anybody interested in history of journalism
Review: Robertson is a really excellent writer, and his frame for discussion is compelling reading. As the issues that face the media today continue to be complicated ones, this book provided me with a valuable look at the intersection between journalism and fiction in the late 19th century. I found the "fact/fiction discourse" that Robertson discusses to be a robust concept and still relevant.
