In August 1914 Britain's first act of war was not to mobilize its army or the Grand Fleet. It was to cut cables preventing German propaganda from reaching American newspapers. Richard Milton exposes the secrets of a relationship steeped in mutual admiration, blood and propaganda, focusing on two world wars and the period in between. It is surprising, powerful and necessary reading for anyone interested in the black arts of propaganda in warfare and how governments shape the opinions of their people.
