The Clarion is a novel written by Samuel Hopkins Adams, first published in 1914. The story is set in the early 20th century and follows the life of a young journalist named John Steele, who works for a fictional newspaper called The Clarion. Steele is a passionate and idealistic journalist who is determined to expose corruption and injustice in society.Throughout the book, Steele investigates various stories, including a corrupt political machine, a fraudulent patent medicine company, and a dangerous coal mine. He faces numerous challenges and obstacles in his quest for the truth, including threats from powerful individuals who want to silence him.As Steele's investigations progress, he becomes increasingly disillusioned with the state of society and the media. He begins to question whether his efforts are making any real difference, and whether the public is even interested in the truth.The Clarion is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that explores themes of corruption, idealism, and the role of the media in society. It is a timeless work that remains relevant today, and is a must-read for anyone interested in journalism, politics, or social justice.1914. American author, Adams was a reporter for the New York Sun, who at the urging of his friend Ray Stannard Baker, joined McClure's Magazine, where he gained a reputation as a muckraker for his articles on the conditions of public health in the United States. Adams also wrote a series of articles for Collier's Weekly, in which he exposed patent medicines; these pieces were credited with influencing the passage of the first Pure Food and Drugs Act. A prolific writer, Adams produced both fiction and nonfiction. His best-known novel, Revelry, was based on the scandals of the Harding administration. The Clarion begins: Between two flames the man stood, overlooking the crowd. A soft breeze, playing about the torches, sent shadows billowing across the massed folk on the ground. Shrewdly set with an eye to theatrical effect, these phares of a night threw out from the darkness the square bulk of the man's figure, and, reflecting garishly upward from the naked hemlock of the platform, accentuated, as in bronze, the bosses of the face, and gleamed deeply in the dark, bold eyes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
