520    "Long before the invention of printing, let alone the 
       availability of a daily newspaper, people desired to be 
       informed. In the pre-industrial era news was gathered and 
       shared through conversation and gossip, civic ceremony, 
       celebration, sermons, and proclamations. The age of print 
       brought pamphlets, edicts, ballads, journals, and the 
       first news-sheets, expanding the news community from local
       to worldwide. This groundbreaking book tracks the history 
       of news in ten countries over the course of four 
       centuries. It evaluates the unexpected variety of ways in 
       which information was transmitted in the premodern world 
       as well as the impact of expanding news media on 
       contemporary events and the lives of an ever-more-informed
       public. Andrew Pettegree investigates who controlled the 
       news and who reported it; the use of news as a tool of 
       political protest and religious reform; issues of privacy 
       and titillation; the persistent need for news to be 
       current and journalists trustworthy; and people's changed 
       sense of themselves as they experienced newly opened 
       windows on the world. By the close of the eighteenth 
       century, Pettegree concludes, transmission of news had 
       become so efficient and widespread that European citizens-
       now aware of wars, revolutions, crime, disasters, scandals,
       and other events-were poised to emerge as actors in the 
       great events unfolding around them"--|cProvided by
