At this time he found his greatest opportunity for constructive use of his wealth -- in fathering New York's great progressive newspaper PM and in founding the Chicago Sun. It is with his fight to give the American public news without bias, and with the personal philosophy that compelled him to enter this fight, that this book is chiefly concerned." Very Good / Good.
