MacGillivray, George B.
A History of Fort William and Port Arthur Newspapers from 1875
101 pages including index. Black and white photos. "It is a truism that wherever and whenever men formed settlements on this continent a newspaper of some kind would soon be born. Commencing in 1875, more than 30 newspapers have been published in Fort William and Port Arthur in Thunder Bay District at the head of Lake Superior. This book represents an invaluable and rare contribution to the history of news media in Canada. It is almost a paradox that Canada's most powerful news medium..has had so little to say about itself throughout the years." - from forward. Average wear, sound binding.
