Reviews
"...a well-told life of the early media tycoon...a solid biography" ( Kirkus Reviews, July 15, 2001) "...Brian's book is a chronicle more than a biography, taking an uncritical approach to the self-conscious myth-making of its sources..." ( Sunday Telegraph, 11 November, 2001) "By introducing Pulitzer to a new century's readers, this entertaining volume will break a silence not even Pulitzer could have tolerated" ( Columbia Journalism Review, November/December 2001) "...meticulously researched biography...Brian writes with energy and pace..." (The Observer, 2 December 2001) "...It is a big story, and it is told here with panache by Denis Brian.... He [Pulitzer] was a momental individual, and fully deserves the big, gripping, richly detailed biography Brian has written..." ( Financial Times, 8 December 2001) "...Brian writes with energy and pace..." (The Guardian Weekly, 13 December 2001) "...peppered with anecdotes and examples form his newspapers, Pulitzer: A Life shines a light on a fascinating period in American history..." (Manchester Evening News 21 December 2001) "a dizzyingly detailed but engaging biography...we have Mr. Brian's biography to remind us of the real man." (Wall Street Journal, January 30, 2002) "The book is well written and reads more like a novel than a biography." (Marxist Review, February 2002) "...makes a great read..." (The News Line, 20 February 2002), "...a well-told life of the early media tycoon...a solid biography" ( Kirkus Reviews , July 15, 2001) "...Brian's book is a chronicle more than a biography, taking an uncritical approach to the self-conscious myth-making of its sources..."
