Your Country Needs YOU by James Taylor

Your Country Needs YOU by James Taylor

The iconic image of Lord Kitchener with pointing finger is a design classic. In the run-up to the World War I anniversary, Your Country Needs YOU celebrates the magnificent propaganda posters of the time. Drawing on fresh analysis of the archives, this book reveals a surprising new history of these hugely popular and enduring images.

Wonderful.. a work that will fascinate.
A splendid little book... [with] magnificent illustrations.
Taylor is interesting on the great 'Careless talk costs lives' posters.
This is a terrific little tome. The word 'charming' is hard not to overuse here. -- Amazon reviewer.
History written in a most riveting and readable style. An excellent work... one of the best books I have ever read. -- Amazon reviewer.
