Claremont Literary Walking Tour - Stop #4

Built in 1928 for Claremont's newspaper, the Daily Eagle, this was originally a one-story building with a street facade of yellow brick. The second floor was added in the mid-1940s. The building has been renovated to serve as transitional housing.

The Daily Eagle newspaper has been published in Claremont under a variety of names since 1834. Throughout the Eagle's long history it has had reporters and editors who, during their time at or after the Eagle, have published books of fiction and non-fiction. Publishers of the Eagle, Edward J. Bennett, Simeon Ide, and George I. Putnam all authored books following their retirement. Some of the reporters and section editors made names for themselves not only as newspapermen but as book authors as well. Other Eagle alumni who authored books include Nelson Bryant, Kenneth Whipple, Bertha Emond, Patrick O'Grady, and Roger Carroll.
