Synopsis

"Propaganda Wars" explores the pervasive influence of propaganda throughout the 20th and 21st centuries, examining its role in shaping conflicts, molding public opinion, and driving global power struggles. This book analyzes how persuasion techniques have evolved, impacting political landscapes and individual perceptions. For instance, it reveals how psychological principles are leveraged to influence beliefs and incite action, sometimes altering the course of nations.

 
Understanding the mechanics of propaganda empowers readers to critically assess information in an age where information warfare rivals conventional military operations. The book delves into case studies from major historical events like World War II and the Cold War, showcasing specific propaganda techniques and their intended effects. It also addresses ethical considerations and the challenges posed by digital disinformation.

 
Progressing through chapters, the book first defines propaganda and its historical context, then analyzes specific campaigns, and concludes by examining digital-age challenges and potential countermeasures. This approach provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of propaganda's past, present, and potential future impact.

Special Men - A LRP's Recollections

Dennis Foley

A recipient of two Purple Hearts gives readers an inside view of US Army special forces through his own trial by fire during the Vietnam War. Days before he was drafted in 1962, Dennis Foley volunteered to join the army in the hopes of someday getting into West Point. He was only eighteen years old. At basic training in Fort Dix, New Jersey, a presentation by two impressive, self-confident special forces sergeants made an indelible impression on him. His career would come full circle. In 1972, wearing a green beret, Foley would be given command of his own A-Team. But between those two pivotal moments, his determination, loyalty, and mental and physical strength would be tested as never before, fighting in the jungles of Vietnam alongside the bravest men he would ever know. In Special Men, Foley describes his experience at the 7th Army NCO Academy in Germany, where he learned more about leadership than at any other school he would later attend. He takes us moment-by-moment on his heart-pounding introduction to combat—a nighttime, amphibious ambush patrol with the South Vietnamese Navy. We see the shock set in upon realizing that conventional training left him unprepared for the guerrilla army he faced in Vietnam. And we share his sadness over fallen comrades and his own relief at surviving his injuries. This is an unvarnished account of horror and heroism and a tribute to the unselfish devotion to duty of the LRPs, Rangers, and Green Berets.

Harry Edward

The lost memoir of Britain's first Black Olympic medal winner—and the America he discovered 
 
 
  
After winning Olympic medals for Britain in 1920, Harry Edward (1898–1973) decided to try his luck in America. The country he found was full of thrilling opportunity and pervasive racism. 
 
 
  
Immensely capable and energetic, Harry rubbed shoulders with kings and presidents, was influential in the revival of Black theatre during the Harlem Renaissance, and became a passionate humanitarian and advocate for child welfare. He was present at some of the twentieth century's most significant moments, worked alongside W. E. B. Du Bois and Orson Welles, and witnessed two world wars and the civil rights movement. Yet he was frustrated at almost every turn. 
 
 
  
Toward the end of his life he set down his story, crafting this memoir of athletics and activism, race and racism on both sides of the Atlantic. His manuscript went unpublished until now. This is the deeply engaging tale of Edward's life—and a moving testament to his drive to form a better world.
