The Annual Whitehall Lecture Series presents The New York Newspaper Publishers of the Gilded Age, at 3:00 p.m. each Sunday from February 2nd to March 2nd. Experts and authors will speak about the publishers that were responsible for producing the newspapers of New York during the Gilded Age.

Horace Greeley founded the New-York Tribune, a daily newspaper that catered first to the American Whig party until Greeley helped organize the newly emerging Republican Party. Dr. James M. Lundberg will explore the New-York Tribune’s impact on New York’s media market and dissects Greeley’s longing for a morally consistent American nationhood.

When possible, each lecture will be followed by a book signing with the author.
