Area Newspaper History to Be Discussed at Hardscrabble Presentation

The next lecture in the Miami Hardscrabble series is  Wednesday, January 16 at the Bullion Plaza Museum in Miami.

The discussion will include the history of the two major newspapers in the area through the years, the Arizona Silver Belt and the Arizona Record. She will also talk about  why the purchase of a Linotype was a major development in newspaper history around the world.
