    Guardians of Liberty - Freedom...

    For over 200 years, freedom of the press has been a fundamental ideal of the United States. Allowing people to publish news, ideas, and opinions without censure or interference—even if what they’re reporting is contentious—was so important to the founders of this nation that they placed a guarantee in the First Amendment to the Constitution. 
     
    Citing many examples from America’s history, from the American Revolution to the Civil War and from Vietnam to the presidencies of Barack Obama and Donald Trump, acclaimed author Linda Barrett Osborne shows how a free press has played an essential role in the growth of this nation and allowed democracy to flourish. With today’s new technologies affecting how media is delivered, sometimes fierce public debate surrounding what constitutes free speech, and more division in our news and politics than ever before, Guardians of Liberty reminds readers that everyone has a right to convey the news and express opinions, no matter how strongly we may disagree with one another. 
     
    “In her enthralling, sometimes shocking history of ‘freedom of the press and the nature of news,’ Osborne presents a masterly balance of anecdote and analysis. Deeply researched and beautifully written, Guardians of Liberty enlightens and entertains readers of any age. Above all, Osborne reminds us that without an independent press, we would have no reliable news, only partisan propaganda.”—Michael Dirda, Pulitzer Prize–winning critic for the Washington Post

    Zip, a little fox terrier, lives in the town of Maplewood in the house of his owner, Dr. Elsworth. Each day when Dr. Elsworth drives his carriage to visit his patients, Zip goes along with him so that he can keep the doctor company and, most importantly, visit with the other animals in the town. Zip likes to find out all the latest news so that he can tell it to his best friend, Tabby the cat, who also lives with Dr. Elsworth. However, he also finds himself getting into mischief, whether it's trying to solve a burglary, sneaking fried chicken from a picnic, getting stuck in a stovepipe or fighting with Peter-Kins the monkey. Zip is one dog who never has a dull day. (Summary by Lee Ann Howlett.)
