Reviews
This is a well-organized, well-annotated volume that demonstrates the role of propaganda in directing and motivating national political ideology and interests over an extended period of time. * American Reference Books Annual *
...well-organized and well-annotated...Cole has studied his topic extensively and writes with authority. More importantly, he organizes this work into seven clearly delineated chapters that make it easy to use...Recommended for large public libraries as well as college and university libraries. * CHOICE *
...excellent...Robert Cole has performed an extremely useful service for historians, political scientists, and media analysts alike...easy to use. The combined theoretical and empirical approach means that, unlike others, this bibliography amounts to more than the sum of its parts...Cole deserves praise. He is particularly adept at summarizing complex arguments and skillful when examining film material, much of which is sadly no longer extant...highly recommended, both as a time-saver for historians of propaganda and as a means of enlightenment to others working in more conventional fields of the discipline. * International History Review *
...an outstanding bibliography on an important topic. * Reference and User Services Quarterly *
...represents a synthesis of a vast amount of material. Cole's annotations are informative and his selections wide-ranging, and the book provides considerable insight into an important political and cultural phenomenon of the 20th century. * AB Bookman's Weekly *
