Description:
A 1st ed. very good+ minor signs of use on covs. text near fine. Stunning, hilarious & politically incendiary, this full-color poster book reworks classic American WWI & II propaganda into commentaries on war, peace & patriotism for the post-9/11 era. The 40 one-sided posters make fun of war mentality, the Bush White House, Homeland Security, the War on Terror, Ashcroft, the 2000 Presidential election, the military-industrial complex & much more. Posters of yesteryear such as Uncle Sam's "I Want You," & "Loose Lips Sink Ships" are reworked with new messages of peace & protest. Foreword/ Kurt Vonnegut. Introduction: Dissent & Democracy/ Howard Zinn.
