Hardcover / Hardback. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. Hardback. Despotic, tragic, and yet mesmerising, newspaper editor Charles E. Chapin ruled the evening press in that bygone era when it was the CNN of the pre-electronic world of journalism. For two decades a century ago, Chapin held dominion over New York's…wild assortment of tabloids and broadsheets until he murdered his wife in her sleep and his fiefdom was reduced to that of tending roses in one of the nation's most notorious prisons. The author scrupulously traces the rise and fall of this iconic newspaperman, a life so extraordinary that today journalists still recount the myths it generated. As city editor of Joseph Pulitzer's 'New York Evening World', Chapin was the model of the take-no-prisoners newsroom tyrant: he drove reporters relentlessly, and kept his paper on top of the centre ring of the circus of big-city journalism. From the city's most celebrated murder trials to the sinking of the 'Titanic', Chapin set the pace for New York's Park Row. Then in 1918 at the pinnacle of fame, Chapin's world collapsed. The obsessive temperament that made him such a masterful editor now tormented him as he faced financial ruin after years of profligate spending. Sunk in depression, he decided to kill himself and his wife. On a quiet September morning he took not his own life, but that of his beloved wife, Nellie. After his trial - and one hell of a story for the 'Worlds' competitors - he was sentenced to life in the infamous Sing Sing Prison in Ossining, New York. In prison, Chapin edited an uncompromising inmate newspaper, wrote a best-selling autobiography, and sustained two long-distance love affairs. More significantly, he tapped his prodigious energy and compulsive traits to transform barren prison plots into massive rose gardens that became world famous, before he died peacefully in his cell in 1930. Illus., Epilogue, Appendix, Guide to Notes and Abbreviations, Notes, Bibliog. and Index. 438pp. lge. 8vo. h/back. From the library of true-crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. F. in f. dw. A fairly heavy book which may require additional postage.

Hardback. Condizione: New. Today, seventy-three years after his death, journalists still tell tales of Charles E. Chapin. As city editor of Pulitzer's New York Evening World , Chapin was the model of the take-no-prisoners newsroom tyrant: he drove reporters relentlessly-and kept his paper in the center ring of the circus of big-…city journalism. From the Harry K. Thaw trial to the sinking of the Titanic , Chapin set the pace for the evening press, the CNN of the pre-electronic world of journalism. In 1918, at the pinnacle of fame, Chapin's world collapsed. Facing financial ruin, sunk in depression, he decided to kill himself and his beloved wife Nellie. On a quiet September morning, he took not his own life, but Nellie's, shooting her as she slept. After his trial-and one hell of a story for the World's competitors-he was sentenced to life in the infamous Sing Sing Prison in Ossining, New York. In this story of an extraordinary life set in the most thrilling epoch of American journalism, James McGrath Morris tracks Chapin's rise from legendary Chicago street reporter to celebrity powerbroker in media-mad New York. His was a human tragedy played out in the sensational stories of tabloids and broadsheets. But it's also an epic of redemption: in prison, Chapin started a newspaper to fight for prisoner rights, wrote a best-selling autobiography, had two long-distance love affairs, and tapped his prodigious talents to transform barren prison plots into world-famous rose gardens before dying peacefully in his cell in 1930. The first portrait of one of the founding figures of modern American journalism, and a vibrant chronicle of the cutthroat culture of scoops and scandals, The Rose Man of Sing Sing is also a hidden history of New York at its most colorful and passionate. James McGrath Morris is a former journalist, author of Jailhouse Journalism: The Fourth Estate Behind Bars , and a historian. He lives in Falls Church, Virginia, and teaches at West Springfield High School.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Charles E. Chapin, the notorious editor-tyrant of Joseph Pulitzer's New York Evening World during America's Gilded Age, made headlines himself after murdering his wife of 39 years. The extensively researched biography by Morris (Jailhouse Journalism: The Fourth Estate Behind Bars) reads like a tr…ue-crime page-turner, bringing to life Chapin's tragic story, from his childhood to his days spent cultivating a beautiful rose garden in Sing Sing prison to the last moments of his life. Morris lends the story depth by including colorful depictions of everyday New York life circa the early 1900s, intriguing descriptions of the corrupt practices of editors and reporters, and vivid accounts of major events like the Titanic disaster, a story that Chapin's paper scooped from its competitors. An engrossing read, this is suitable for all libraries.
