It
is often said that "World War II was fought on many different
fronts". Historians who say this do not just mean the war was
fought in many different geographical areas. They mean that other
aspects of the war were also extremely important.
During
WWII, posters and images such as the one shown on the left were
used. Look at the poster (click on it to view a larger

What
message is it putting across? How
would it make British people feel?
This
poster is an example of Propaganda. According to a dictionary,
propaganda is:
"Publicity to put across a certain
idea or message."
In
this lesson you are going to look at a photo to extend your own thoughts
and ideas about propaganda.
