Page In The Life and Letters of Walter H. Page (1923), Burton Hendrick, who first met Walter Hines Page (1855-1918) as an employee of World's Work, a magazine that Page published, profiles the journalist-turned-diplomat. As a result of their professional relationship, Hendrick's two-volume account is especially rich in detail about Page's remarkable career, which saw him rise to editor of The Atlantic Monthly, literary adviser to Houghton Mifflin, partner in Doubleday Page & Company, and eventually US ambassador to the United Kingdom during World War I. In the first of the two-volume work, Hendrick discusses Hines's publishing career and influence as a journalist prior to the first World War.
