World War II Extra: An Around-The World Newspaper History from the Treaty of Versailles to the Nuremberg Trials
- Used Book in Good Condition
The newspapers were our main link to the events of the war, they also encouraged the war efforts at home to save scrap and ration materials. As the entire war lived the nightmare that was World War II, much of the news was only what the powers that be wanted us to hear. Propaganda proliferated on all fronts to demoralize and trick opponents. Full disclosure would have been a breach of security and a risk to each side's military operations. The "loose lips sink ships" mentality was seriously respected by both journalists and the citizenry.
Papers reporting the world events are presented from Alaska to Berlin and from Tokyo to the French Algiers, creating a volume that acts as a time machine, transporting us back to the victories and atrocities of the war that saved the world's freedom.
