Recenzii

'There is no doubt that newspapers played an ever increasing role in public and political life during the nineteenth century, and their importance and influence grew in consequence. In Palmerston and The Times Laurence Fenton has drawn out a number of illuminating points of detail and information and offers a closer examination of the dynamics of Palmerston's connections with the press.' - David Brown, Professor of History, University of Southampton
