Joseph Pulitzer, His Life & Letters is a definitive biography of one of the most influential figures in American journalism. Written by Don Carlos Seitz, who worked closely with Pulitzer at the New York World, this work offers an intimate and comprehensive look at the man who transformed the newspaper industry. Pulitzer's journey from a penniless Hungarian immigrant to a powerful media titan is chronicled with meticulous detail, drawing from personal correspondence and firsthand accounts.

The narrative explores Pulitzer's innovative and often controversial approach to new journalism, his fierce commitment to exposing corruption, and his role in establishing the prestigious Pulitzer Prizes. Beyond his professional achievements, the book delves into Pulitzer's complex personality, his struggles with failing health and blindness, and his unwavering dedication to the democratic ideal of a free press. This biography serves as both a historical record of the Gilded Age media landscape and a profound character study of a visionary who shaped the modern editorial voice. Readers interested in the evolution of American media, political history, and the life of a self-made icon will find this work an essential resource.
