A History of American Magazines, Volume V: 1905-1930
In 1939 Frank Luther Mott received a Pulitzer Prize for Volumes II and III of his History of American Magazines. In 1958 he was awarded the Bancroft Prize for Volume IV. He was at work on Volume V of the projected six-volume history when he died in October 1964. He had, at that time, written the sketches of the twenty-one magazines that appear in this volume. These magazines flourished during the period 1905-1930, but their "biographies" are continued throughout their entire lifespan--in the case of the ten still published, to recent years. Mott's daughter, Mildred Mott Wedel, has prepared this volume for publication and provided notes on changes since her father's death. No one has attempte...

A History of American Magazines, 1885-1905
In the fourth volume of his widely acclaimed History of American Magazines (volumes two and three of which received the Pulitzer Prize), Frank Mott carries his story into the first years of our century. By means of analysis and of lively quotation from the magazines themselves, the author shows the changes in the social, political, and economic life of the times in America, the movements in ideas and taste, and the developments of popular interests. This is the period when the Saturday Evening Post, the Ladies Home Journal, Collier's, Cosmopolitan, and National Geographic came into prominence, and their development--in terms of management, policies, personalities--is treated in full by Mott....
Time Enough
In this series of fifteen warm, humorous, autobiographical essays, Mott expresses the philosophy that we are all a part of the clock and calendar system on which the world must be run. We must, however, he insists, stand up and say, I have time enough and to spare for what I really wish most to do. His essays recount American ways of life that have almost disappeared, but they also testify to one man's dynamic and forward-looking philosophy. Originally published in 1962.

The articles collected in this volume present a vivid panorama of American journalistic history from its antecedents in the English ballad singers to the press giants of modern times. Since there is probably no single force that has played a greater role in the history of America than its newspapers, the history of journalism tells, in large measure, the story of this country's political, social, and economic development. Theref...
