Winning the War
A new booklet on the Ministry of Information and its wartime messages to the British public.
'Most government departments after the last war received the honour of an official history. The Ministry of Information (MOI) received merely scorn and derision', proclaims a new booklet issued by HMSO from records at the Public Record Office which aims to redress this imbalance. Written by Marion Yass, This is Your War tells the story of the development and growing sophistication of the messages to boost home morale and control and distribute news and information.
