"Dueling is a fundamental part of the history of journalism. By examining the 19th century Code Duello, the accepted standards under which a duel could be conducted, the causes of combative responses between journalists are shown. Each chapter examines an aspect of this relationship from the 19th century until the present"--Provided by publisher.
