Ross Eaman is professor of journalism at Carleton University.
The author should be commended for his useful bibliographic essay....This volume could be a useful supplemental work for strong journalism collections in public or academic libraries.
— Booklist, July 2009
Well organized and easy to use, this work features an excellent limited topical bibliography that will be useful to beginning researchers who seek more in-depth information on the entries. This is an excellent title for the reference department of any public library or undergraduate library. Highly recommended.

The Historical Dictionaries published by Scarecrow Press are a publishing phenomenon....one of the most detailed, lucid and cogent accounts of journalism I have read.
— Bob Duckett, 2010; Reference Reviews
This valuable work is more than just a dictionary....With unbiased coverage, addressing controversial issues, biographies, and all levels of publications from the finest to those with less repute, the work is a valuable first stop for information on a topic of journalism from any time period or in any medium. This is a welcome addition to any reference collection servicing those who are interested in the field of journalism.
