Description
British Posters of the Second World War presents one hundred iconic posters from Britain's wartime era. Produced by the Ministry of Information to boost morale and raise awareness, these posters conveyed an important message to the British public during a time of great hardship.
The posters varied in their tone and content, ranging from bold declarations of victory to warnings about espionage and the importance of self-sufficiency. Drawing on the Imperial War Museum's extensive collection, this book explores these campaigns and many others, offering a unique insight into Britain's role in World War II.
