More About The Fog of War: Censorship of Canada's Media in World War II
Interesting book that contained much detail about how the release of information during the wars that Canada had participated.It was a lot of research on the authors part and also showed how the information imparted to the nation was censored to provoke patriotism. What an interesting, historical account of the challenges of censorship during World World II. The author does a great job of presenting the many perspectives and sides of this difficult topic; his description of the internal and external conflict for the censors themselves breathes life into this book.
