THE RHODESIAN PRESS - WD Gale

The Rhodesian Printing and Publishing Co, 1962

Hardcover with jacket. In good condition but the jacket shows wear and there is evidence of some possible insect damage in the past - very minor and all clear now.

 "This is the story of The Rhodesian Printing and Publishing Company and its newspapers. It is a story which is bound up with the development, political, economic and social, of the two Rhodesias, which its newspapers have served since the beginnings of European colonisation. It is a truly Rhodesian enterprise which through the years has endeavored, honestly and faithfully, to serve the best interests of the two countries. In 70 years it has grown from a mud-and-grass hut producing a small cyclostyled sheet in the pioneer settlement of Fort Salisbury to a mammoth organisation publishing four daily newspapers, two Sunday papers and two thrice-weekly papers in Southern and Northern Rhodesia."
