World War I coincided with a golden age of achievement in the art of poster design, and all sides in the conflict employed the best talents to make maximum use of the poster's ability to stir emotions. This book tries to re-create a more innocent era in which a poster could be used to "sell'' a war. While the book is undeniably attractive, it covers too much ground and is too unfocused (despite the title, posters from many countries are illustrated; further, too many nonposter forms of propaganda are considered.) Instead of offering insights, the text simply rehashes popular World War I history adequately covered elsewhere. The general reader will find this sprawling study more confusing than enlightening.

The "modern" American poster has figured prominently in virtually every major political, social, commercial, and cultural development in the country. With arresting images and text, these posters have informed and sold Americans on election campaigns, the nation's war efforts, protest movements, consumer products, travel, entertainment, etc. They also comprise a history of U.S. graphic design, reflecting dramatic changes in style, advertising theory, and printing, as well as the emergence of key graphic designers. The American Image provides a rare survey of this popular art, spanning more than one hundred years. Selected from the Resnick Collection, the book analyzes some 70 posters representative of every significant style and theme. They range from design masterpieces to works of historical value, from posters by renowned designers to those created anonymously, and from celebrated images to those never before published. This handsome book includes superb, full-color reproductions; an incisive essay on American poster design by R. Roger Remington; and a preface and authoritative commentary on each image by Mark Resnick. MARK RESNICK is currently Executive Vice-President, Business Affairs, for Twentieth Century Fox. He has assembled what is likely the foremost private collection of American posters spanning the 1890s to present. R. ROGER REMINGTON is the Massimo and Lella Vignelli Distinguished Professor in Design in the School of Design, Rochester Institute of Technology. He is the author of several books, the most recent of which is American Modernism: Graphic Design, 1920 to 1960.

The poster - inexpensive, colorful, and immediate - was an ideal medium for delivering messages about Americans' duties on the home front during World War II. Design for Victory presents more than 150 of these stunning images - many never reproduced since their first issue - culled from the collections of the National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution. William L. Bird, Jr. and Harry R. Rubenstein delve beneath the surface of these colorful graphics, telling the stories behind their production and revealing how posters fulfilled the goals and needs of their creators. The authors describe the history of how specific posters were conceived and received, focusing on the workings of the wartime advertising profession and demonstrating how posters often reflected uneasy relations between labor and management.

The production, recruiting and War Bond posters of World War II were America's "weapons on the wall." Millions of posters of hundreds of unique designs cascaded off the presses and onto the American landscape, raising hopes in the dark days after Pearl Harbor and convincing folks on the home front that their efforts were the key to victory. Encouraging the people of America to do their part to aid in the war efforts as well as take care of themselves, these War Bond posters were a beacon during World War II. Posters That Won the War expertly preserve the most important posters of the World War II era. Inside Posters That Won the War, find beautiful prints of the posters of World War II. Through times of emotional and physical struggle in postwar America, artists did their best to engage a sense of safety and lovingness for their fellow Americans.

If you are searching for a gift for the history buff in your life, or an addition for your own library, Posters That Won the War will delight them for years.
