The paperback of the acclaimed book that charts Daily Mail´s checkered history and gives an unrivalled insight into its infamously elusive editor, Paul Dacre

---

Mail Men is the gripping, unofficial story of an institution that has become the self-proclaimed voice of middle England, and the adversary of liberals everywhere. Journalist Adrian Addison investigates the secret behind the Mail´s extraordinary longevity and commercial success but also examines the controversies that have beset the paper - from its owner´s flirtation with fascism in the 1930s to its fractious relationship with liberals, celebrities and politicians today. Revelatory and captivating, this book also gets under the skin of Paul Dacre, the once awkward reporter who has become one of the most feared, hated, secretive, and respected editors in Britain. This is an essential read if you wish to understand modern Britain.
