Abstract

The purpose of this thesis is to present a history of the Milwaukee Sentinel from 1837 to 1900. This provides an interesting subject for investigation because the Sentinel, as one of Milwaukee's first papers, kept in step with community progress and so reflects much of the development of this section of the country. Sentinel files reveal that the paper did not confine itself to Milwaukee alone, but took a keen interest in state, national, and to some extent, international affairs.
