Aerial Propaganda and the Wartime Occupation of France, 1914-1918
explores the combined role played by the French and British
Governments and Armies in creating and distributing millions of
aerial newspapers and leaflets aimed at the French population
trapped behind German lines. Drawing on extensive research and
French, German and British primary sources, the book highlights a
previously unknown aspect of psychological warfare that challenges
the established interpretation that the occupied populations lived
in a state of total isolation and that the Allied governments had
no desire to provide them with morale support. Instead a very
different picture emerges from this study, which demonstrates that
aerial propaganda not only played a fundamental role in raising
morale in the occupied territories but also fuelled resistance and
clandestine publications. This book demonstrates that the existing
historiographical portrayal of the occupied civilian as an
uninformed victim must be replaced by a more nuanced
interpretation.
