The year that defined American journalism Book

An excellent scholarly review of 19th century depictions of Native Americans in the American press. I came across this book when I wondered aloud to a friend whether the papers represented the Indians as an existential threat- one that was inherently savage, irrational, and absorbed by a monomaniacal obsession with exterminating civilized white people. This was certainly the case with Sitting Bull, though the overall picture is more complex.
