"News of The War" – In the first six months of 1941, there's so much happening EVERYWHERE. So how is the British public staying abreast of the war? By reading about it, in the newspapers. Stalin, Hitler, men in the desert, Crete, Greece, Yugoslavia, the rumour mill in Britain ... and some damned fine advertising, top right, don' turn the page! It could only be the #NewsoftheWar ...Andy Aitcheson and Merryn Walters dig into the newspapers, chasing the stories that didn’t make it into the history books. Expect dry wit, sapper grit, deep dives, and the detours into what lurks in the photos, gossip, scandal, news, and letters to the editor during the Second World War.
