excellent first hand account of propaganda leaflets in WWII

Mr.Boehm was in charge of psychological operations in Italy during WWII. His main job was overseeing the firing of propaganda leaflets in artillery shells to german troops. Mr.Boehm's collection of propaganda pamphlets,leaflets and other related items is likely among the best in the world. The National Archives collection is not nearly as good. This book illuminates an ignored aspect of the war quite well. The book covers the European theater and shows examples of both Allied and Axis propaganda including a rare example of a Soviet propaganda leaflet collected by the author himself. It is colorful and informative making it one of the best "coffe table" books on the Second World War. It is a shame that this book is apparently no longer in print as it would be a valuable asset to WWII scholars and avid readers alike
