Description for Dickens the Journalist Paperback. Num Pages: 263 pages, biography. BIC Classification: DSBF. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 216 x 140. .
Dickens's career as a journalist spanned four decades, during which he wrote over 350 articles: reports, sketches, reviews, leaders, exposés, satires and reminiscences.

It provides both a biographical and socio-historical account of the main phases of Dickens's career as a journalist, and a critical assessment of the thematic and stylistic development of his work.
