At the same time, Elizabeth Job and her family lived in urbane Warsaw as loyal citizens of Poland who cherished their ethnic German heritage. Now, as the war intensifies, the Radandts continue to hold worship meetings in their home and defy the pressure of local party leaders to send their sons to the notorious school for future Nazi leaders. Meanwhile, across the border, Elizabeth's family must cope with the death sentence from the Polish resistance movement for her father, Ludwig, the researcher and developer of radio tubes. When both families are driven from their homes, each embark on harrowing, yet thrilling parallel escape routes across war-torn Germany. The Radio Signal captures the true story of two separate families who share a vibrant faith that imbues their actions with courage and trust. During the war, neither family knows of the other. Neither family knows that their paths will ultimately cross.

Can posters kill? : antisemitic propaganda and World War II / by Faivish, Jerry,author.; Cole, Kathryn,author(CARDINAL)361048;
"An impactful, thoughtful book for teens that provides insights about hate and antisemitism, answering the question of what is propaganda, why it is used, and how detrimental and effective it can be. Can Posters Kill examines why and how the Nazis used cartoons and posters to cultivate hate against the Jews and other groups who were targeted, including Roma, Sinti, people with disabilities, and LGBTQ+ people. The book features actual images of hate propaganda with information on hate against the Jews throughout history, and how posters and cartoons played a role during the Holocaust. The book addresses visual propaganda and how it was used to undermine targets of hate and influence ordinary citizens to become victimizers. For over 40 years, author Jerry Faivish has collected 10,000 posters and cartoons from all over the world focusing on Jewish history and culture, with a large section focusing on antisemitic hate and propaganda from the start of the twentieth century through the years of the Holocaust. A retired lawyer, Jerry Faivish has lectured in Canada and internationally on the subject of antisemitic propaganda, and he has been asked by museums and universities, including Harvard, to house and archive his collection of posters."--

The propagandist / by Desprairies, Cécile,author.; Lehrer, Natasha,translator.(CARDINAL)783564;
"In a grand Paris apartment, a young girl attends gatherings regularly organized by her mother. The women talk about beauty secrets and gossip, but the mood grows dark when the past, notably World War II, comes under coded discussion in hushed tones. Years later, the silent witness to these sessions has become a prominent historian, and with this chilling autobiographical novel she sets out to unmask enigmatic figures in and around her family. Why, she seeks to understand, did the narrator's relatives zealously collaborate with the Nazi occupiers of France, even remaining for decades afterward obsessive devotees of that evil lost cause?"--

How to win an information war : the propagandist who outwitted Hitler / by Pomerantsev, Peter,author.(CARDINAL)407933;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 241-266) and index.The real lives of Sefton Delmer -- Propaganda is the remedy for loneliness -- The Nazi circus -- Not reliable -- All doubts fall away -- Into the ridiculous -- That beastly pornographic organisation -- Strength through fear -- D-Day and the death drive --Valkyrie -- How dead is Hitler? -- How to win an information war -- Ordinary ordinary."From one of our leading experts on disinformation, this inventive biography of the rogue WWII propagandist Thomas Sefton Delmer confronts hard questions about the nature of information war: what if you can't fight lies with truth? Can a propaganda war ever be won? In the summer of 1941, Hitler ruled Europe from the Atlantic to the Black Sea. Britain was struggling to combat his powerful propaganda machine, crowing victory and smearing his enemies as liars and manipulators over his frequent radio speeches, blasted out on loudspeakers and into homes. British claims that Hitler was dangerous had little impact against this wave of disinformation. Except for the broadcasts of someone called Der Chef, a German who questioned Nazi doctrine. He had access to high-ranking German military secrets and spoke of internal rebellion. His listeners included German soldiers and citizens, as well as politicians in Washington DC who were debating getting into the war. And--most importantly--Der Chef was a fiction. He was a character created by the British propagandist Thomas Sefton Delmer, a unique weapon in the war. Then, as author Peter Pomerantsev seeks to tell Delmer's story, he is called into a wartime propaganda effort of his own: the US response to the invasion of Ukraine. In flashes forward to the present day, Pomerantsev weaves in what he's learning from Delmer as he seeks to fight against Vladimir Putin's tyranny and lies. This book is the story of Delmer and his modern investigator, as they each embark on their own quest to manipulate the passions of supporters and enemies, and to turn the tide of an information war, an extraordinary history that is informing the present before our eyes"--

"Brussels, 1943. Twelve-year-old street orphan Helene survives by selling copies of the country's most popular newspaper, Le Soir--now turned into Nazi propaganda. Helene befriends a rogue journalist, Marc Aubrion, who draws her into a secret network that publishes dissident underground newspapers. The Nazis track down Aubrion's team and give them an impossible choice: turn the resistance newspapers into a Nazi propaganda bomb that will sway public opinion against the Allies, or be killed. Instead, they decide to publish a fake edition of Le Soir that pokes fun at Hitler and Stalin. They have agreed to die for a joke, and they have only eighteen days to tell it."--Provided by publisher.
