Who Was Joseph Pulitzer?

Pulitzer arrived in America as an almost penniless immigrant who barely spoke English, yet twenty five years later rearranged America's newspaper business. Crimmins' novel brings us into the Gilded Age, where Pulitzer confronted the powers that be who were exploiting the population for their own selfish ends. Pulitzer's workaholic lifestyle and Napoleonic ambitions led to personal problems, unfortunately, and Crimmins shows us the personal struggles of one of the most inventive geniuses in the history of American journalism
