"The award committee praised The
Periodical Press Revolution for offering 'a bold and
ambitious argument centred on E. S. Dallas's influential
1859 essays for Blackwood's Magazine. Based on an
intertwined methodology of quantitative data and
qualitative argument, this is an impressive book about
press transformations underpinned by a media theory
approach. Graham Law gives fresh and valuable perspectives
in particular on structural change and developments in the
British nineteenth-century press through Dallas as an
organizing figure.'"
