Read it:
Washington, 1933 to 1979. A financier buys a bankrupt newspaper at a sidewalk auction for $825,000 and hands it, in time, to his son-in-law. In 1963 the son-in-law shoots himself, and the owner's daughter — forty-six, and not paid for a day's work since the war — is left holding a company nobody expects her to run. Eight years later she clears the publication of a stolen Defense Department history while her stock offering is still settling; a year after that, two junior reporters follow a burglary into the White House. The question underneath is the one her father bought in 1933 and never answered: what a newspaper is actually selling, and who inside the building is permitted to decide it. Covers Eugene Meyer, Philip Graham, Katharine Graham, Washington Post, and Washington Post Company.
