Those of rank do not fall in love, period.
The Dowager lives by this rule as she sends her niece Beatrice to London
During the Second World War, the UK government created the Ministry of Information to handle official news, to maintain morale & to conduct publicity campaigns for government departments.
In these desperate times, the Ministry produced steady streams of propaganda for the home front, for the colonies & for dissemination through occupied countries.
Patriotic material encouraged Britons to maintain a stiff upper lip, nutritional information kept the strained populace healthy, & thousands of postcards, leaflets, & booklets were dropped from aircraft over occupied countries, undermining the enemy s influence.
In this bold & evocative book, David Welch, the leading historian of propaganda, presents the best examples from the wartime information machine & reveals the history behind this key government body.
