Amid the precarious state of newspapers today, longtime journalist Roy J. Harris Jr. finds beacons of inspiration. His book "Pulitzer's Gold" recounts newspapers' historical role of public service, offering a warning of what could be lost if newspapers disappear. The Hingham resident will be at the Brookline Booksmith on Aug. 27 as part of a panel discussing such issues as the future of journalism. He spoke about his book and the publishing business in an interview with The Globe.
