Excerpt from The Magazine in America These papers, for the most part published in The Bookman, present an informal history of the magazine movement in the United States, from its beginning down to the close of the nineteenth century. The author has not undertaken the business of the genuine historian. In the few studies he has encountered of magazines of special periods, he has found as many contradicted statements of fact as an informed reader may discover in his own pages. Many of the statistics of magazines have been entirely lost, partly through contemporaneous indifference to such ephemera and partly because the persons who knew the facts were willing to let them disappear. This account seeks merely to arrange our magazines and their tendencies in order, and to assemble such published opinions about both as the author in his reading has found interesting either in themselves or in their disagreement. Perfectly fair-minded people unfortunately have at the time little that is interesting to say and less occasion for saying it. Only out of some fullness of the heart have mouths spoken of matters which were mistakenly supposed to be of small concern to the general public. Editors and proprietors notoriously put their best foot forward, and avoid mention of derogatory items which competitors and contributors are as eager to detach and emphasise. As a consequence, the facts of the period are to be found only by minute search and comparison of sophisticated or biassed documents. The author has had no opportunity to verify, sift, and weigh all the collectable evidence - which is the duty of veritable history.

From the colonial era to the onset of the Civil War, Magazines and the Making of America looks at how magazines and the individuals, organizations, and circumstances they connected ushered America into the modern age. How did a magazine industry emerge in the United States, where there were once only amateur authors, clumsy technologies for production and distribution, and sparse reader demand? What legitimated magazines as they competed with other media, such as newspapers, books, and letters? And what role did magazines play in the integration or division of American society? From their first appearance in 1741, magazines brought together like-minded people, wherever they were located and whatever interests they shared. As America became socially differentiated, magazines engaged and empowered diverse communities of faith, purpose, and practice. Religious groups could distinguish themselves from others and demarcate their identities. Social-reform movements could energize activists across the country to push for change. People in specialized occupations could meet and learn from one another to improve their practices. Magazines built translocal communities—collections of people with common interests who were geographically dispersed and could not easily meet face-to-face. By supporting communities that crossed various axes of social structure, magazines also fostered pluralistic integration. Looking at the important role that magazines had in mediating and sustaining critical debates and diverse groups of people, Magazines and the Making of America considers how these print publications helped construct a distinctly American society.

Andrew L. Yarrow tells the story of Look magazine, one of the greatest mass-circulation publications in American history, and the very different United States in which it existed. The all-but-forgotten magazine had an extraordinary influence on mid-twentieth-century America, not only by telling powerful, thoughtful stories and printing outstanding photographs but also by helping to create a national conversation around a common set of ideas and ideals. Yarrow describes how the magazine covered the United States and the world, telling stories of people and trends, injustices and triumphs, and included essays by prominent Americans such as Martin Luther King Jr. and Margaret Mead. It did not shy away from exposing the country's problems, but it always believed that those problems could be solved. Look, which was published from 1937 to 1971 and had about 35 million readers at its peak, was an astute observer with a distinctive take on one of the greatest eras in U.S. history--from winning World War II and building immense, increasingly inclusive prosperity to celebrating grand achievements and advancing the rights of Black and female citizens. Because the magazine shaped Americans' beliefs while guiding the country through a period of profound social and cultural change, this is also a story about how a long-gone form of journalism helped make America better and assured readers it could be better still.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
