Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Making of a Journalist

To illustrate why I did this, let me say that one day a friend of mine met a cowboy fifty miles from any town or camp, dragging a steer by a rope. He had lost his horse and was walking. The sun was tropical, water was nowhere to be had, Indians were likely to appear and kill him; still he tugged at his burden, which was harder to pull than if it had been dead. My friend inquired where he was dragging the cow, and was told that the cowboy's destination was a place two days distant on horseback.

Reseña del editor

Excerpt from The Making of a Journalist

By drawing from twenty-five years of the most active experience in the newspaper business in America and Europe, varied by magazine work in the lines of travel and descriptive work - which is closer than a cousinship to newspaper work I am going to tell what I know upon the subject. I will give the advice which I believe to be best for those who wish to enjoy and snfier the good and trying phases of this field of endeavor. It has its grind, and that shall appear here. It has its dash and danger, its spice and glow, and these shall be described for all that they amount to. It has its honors and prizes; it carries with it importance to some who should stick to it and drudgery to others who should leave it and this I will explain. And through all that follows the reader shall have incident, example, illus tration, and story to clarify and illuminate the text.
