Journalist and author Ernest Cook Poole (1880-1950) was a correspondent for the Saturday
Evening Post and a social reformer who campaigned against child labor. His novel The
Harbor (1915) was one of the first fictional works to portray labor unions in a positive way.
His Family (1918), won the first Pulitzer Prize for Novels (later the Pulitzer Prize for
Fiction). In 1917 Poole traveled to Russia to report on its revolution for The New Republic.
After World War I he co-founded the Foreign Press Service, which negotiated with US
publishers on behalf of foreign writers. Lightly toned. Adhesive residue at top edge on verso.
