Abstract:

Papers, 1924-1954, of Lindsay Hoben, editor of the Milwaukee Journal from 1961-1967. Hoben joined the Journal as a reporter in 1926 and began his travels through Europe, Mexico, and around the world writing columns for the paper. In addition to his worldly travel writings, Hoben was at Bellot Strait, in the eastern Canadian arctic, in 1937 to witness the first crossing of ships through the Northwest Passage. The collection primarily contains scrapbooks of newspaper clippings and photographs documenting his early reporting and travels around the world. Also present are several early typewritten manuscripts by Hoben documenting his early writing career.
