Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the New York Times: 1851-1921 The New York Time1'1 peculiar position in the esteem of the public may make its history of inter est not only to working newspapermen and students of journalism but to many readers who are unfamiliar with the technique of newspaper-making and un acquainted with the personnel of The Times. Some episodes, particularly controversial episodes, have been treated with a certain reserve, as it was felt that it would not be wholly fair to present only one side of the case. But in no instance has accuracy been sacrificed to brevity, and it is the belief that nothing relevant to the history of The Times, or to its inter pretation, has been omitted. With respect to my own sentiments on the occa sion of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the present management of The Times, I can do no better than to repeat here the following article, which appears in The Time: of August 18, 1921.
