The magazine is credited with having started the tradition of muckraking journalism (investigative, watchdog, or reform journalism), and helped direct the moral compass of the day.The magazine featured both political and literary content, publishing serialized novels-in-progress, a chapter at a time. Though McClure’s was founded by S.S. McClure in 1893 to compete with other quality American magazines like Harper’s and Scribner’s, the magazine achieved distinction and national fame at the turn of the century by launching the “muckraking” era in American journalism. Bringing together a team of pioneering journalists that included Ida Tarbell, Ray Stannard Baker, and Lincoln Steffans, the magazine published a series of deeply researched exposés of abuse and corruption in American government and big business, such as Tarbell’s landmark history of Rockefeller’s Standard Oil Company and Baker’s series on Andrew Carnegie’s U.S. Steel. Over a five year period, the magazine’s investigative reporting launched major campaigns for reform and triggered a spate of new legislation, while the paper’s circulation reached over a half million readers. When this core group of investigative journalists left the magazine in 1906 to start their own (The American Magazine), S. S. McClure responded by hiring Willa Cather as editor and moving the magazine in a more literary direction. Readers will find numerous contributions by Cather in the eleven years covered by the MJP’s edition, as well as works by Arnold Bennett, Arthur Conan Doyle, O. Henry, A. E. Housman, Ford Madox Heuffer, Sarah Orne Jewett, Rudyard Kipling, Jack London, Upton Sinclair, R. L. Stevenson, Booth Tarkington, Mrs. Humphry Ward, and W. B. Yeats. Like other quality journals of the day, McClure’s is richly illustrated, publishing art work by N. C. Wyeth and Arthur G. Dove, and a typical issue easily averages a hundred pages of advertising. By 1911 S.S. McClure had lost control of the company, forced to sell the magazine to creditors. It was re-styled as a women's magazine and ran inconsistently in this format, with publication paused from October 1921 to February 1922, September 1924 to April 1925, and February 1926 to May 1926. The later issues, from July 1928 until March 1929, were published under the name New McClure's Magazine. The last issue was in March 1929, after which the magazine was taken over by The Smart Set. In 1916 the magazine published an Automobile Year Book (First McClure Automobile Year Book) with the specifications and pictures of over 100 different major producers of passenger and commercial vehicles. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~This Volume of our digitized collection comprises of a total of 30 select issues between 1896 &1904 *************************** All these OLD & RARE Magazines have been professionally compiled in high quality and preserved forever on USB for your enjoyment You can READ, TRANSFER, COPY, CUT, PASTE, SAVE & ZOOM IN on any text, diagrams or illustrations.
