Pegler: Angry Man of the Press is a biographical account of the life and career of Westbrook Pegler, an influential American journalist and columnist known for his controversial and often inflammatory opinions. Written by Oliver Pilat, the book delves into Pegler's upbringing, his early years in journalism, and his rise to national prominence as a syndicated columnist during the mid-20th century. The author explores Pegler's political views, which were characterized by a fierce anti-communism, as well as his sometimes contentious relationships with fellow journalists and public figures. Pilat also examines Pegler's personal life, including his marriages, family relationships, and struggles with alcoholism. Through a combination of archival research, interviews with Pegler's colleagues and acquaintances, and analysis of his writings, Pegler: Angry Man of the Press provides a nuanced and complex portrait of a complex and controversial figure in American journalism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
