Wood Pulp and Newspapers, 1867–1900

David C. Smith

Business History Review, 1964, vol. 38, issue 3, 328-345

Abstract: Rejecting the traditional explanation that the introduction of features and an increase in scandalmongering account for the growth of American newspapers following the Civil War, Professor Smith advances an interesting correlation between the introduction of wood-pulp paper and the lowered prices and increased circulation of the press.
