'Matt Shaw's An Inky Business is a vivid and incisive account of the origins of newspapers and their extraordinary role in the transformation of society over 200 years. With the very concept of news under threat, this book could not be more timely.'-Paul Lay, editor of History Today and author of Providence Lost: The Rise and Fall of Cromwell's Protectorate (2020)
