Lord Northcliffe : a memoir
This memoir of Lord Northcliffe (Alfred Harmsworth) was written by his friend Max Pemberton, and so reveals quite a lot about Northcliffe's personal life in addition to his professional life. Northcliffe became interested in journalism as a young man, and later bought several newspapers, not the least of which were the Daily Mail and The Times. So successful was Northcliffe that he earned himself the reputation of "The Father of Modern Journalism". (Business Hall of Fame - Newfoundland & Labrador. Junior Achievement Canada, n.d. Web. 19 Jul. 2011.) Chapter nine (p. 118-124) explains how Lords Northcliffe and Rothmere recognized the necessity for a reliable source of paper, and so in 1907 the two men established a paper mill called the Anglo-Newfoundland Development Company at Grand Falls, Newfoundland
