Description:
For educational purposes<br/><br/>This episode provides an intriguing look at the part played by propaganda as Governments struggled to gain the upper hand in the war away from the battlefield. <br/><br/>Methods were sometimes less than subtle, or in some cases, non-existent; however, Josef Gobbels honed the art of mass communication until, in the early days at least, it became one of Germany's most effective weapons. <br/><br/>Gobbels was the master of advancing the cause of National Socialism to his own people, although the attempts to take the message to his enemies were less successful; the British people treated the rantings of 'Lord Haw-Haw' -the traitor William Joyce - with derision. <br/><br/>This episode features rare examples of propaganda posters and leaflets. <br/>There are also interviews propaganda and military experts.
