Print for victory

"This is the first in-depth study of British publishing during the Second World War. Despite increasingly severe paper-rationing and a constant shortage of manpower, it was a period marked by innovation in book design, the advent of new readers in the UK and overseas, and a profound conviction in the power of print. Extraordinary efforts were made to salvage paper and books, and to supply Allied servicemen, prisoners-of-war and citizens of formerly-occupied countries with new publications from Britain."--Jacket.
