Many a boy has a hankering for a newspaper career, and all who have it will read Philip Derby, Reporter by Willis J. Abbot with particular interest. It is largely founded on fact, and it presents forcefully and clearly the conditions and the demands a young man beginning the work of journalism must expect. Philip is not a graduate of a school of journalism, but works his way right on the paper from a position of copy-boy to one of considerable importance. In addition to its newspaper element the book holds a thrilling plot woven around the activities of a criminal gang in New York and is excellent reading from cover to cover.
