Publisher's Synopsis

""How We Advertised America"" is a historical account written by George Creel, detailing the work of the Committee on Public Information during World War I. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the committee's efforts to promote Americanism and patriotism, and to combat anti-American sentiment both domestically and abroad. Creel describes the various propaganda campaigns and techniques used by the committee, including the distribution of pamphlets, posters, and films, as well as the creation of a network of speakers and writers to disseminate pro-American messages. The book also delves into the controversies surrounding the committee's work, including accusations of censorship and propaganda, and the impact of its efforts on American society and the world at large. Overall, ""How We Advertised America"" offers a fascinating insight into the role of propaganda in shaping public opinion during a time of war and crisis, and its enduring effects on American culture and politics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
