<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Propaganda art has been synonymous with life in the galaxy far, far away. Whether it's a poster of a Star Destroyer hovering over a planet in a display of Imperial domination; a symbol painted on a wall to deliver a message of hope on behalf of the Rebellion; or a mural depicting a line of stormtroopers to promote unity within the First Order, this type of art ... captures the ever-changing tides of politics and public sentiment across the galaxy. [This] is an in-world history that threads together the stories behind these images--why they were created, how they were indicative of the times, who were the artists behind them--and delivers a glimpse into the anger, passion, and corruption that fuel the galaxy's greatest wars"--Container.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>A <em>Star Wars</em> authority deepens and extends our appreciation of the <em>Star Wars</em> galaxy with this imaginative history featuring striking full-color artwork--created exclusively for this entertaining volume--that examines the persuasive messages used to intimidate and inspire the citizenry of the galaxy far, far away. . . .</p><p><em>A Star Destroyer hovering over a planet, symbolizing Imperial domination. </em></p><p><em>An X-wing delivering a message of resistance and hope on behalf of the Rebellion.</em></p><p><em>A line of armed, faceless First Order stormtroopers promoting unity.</em></p><p>These are all examples of propaganda used by the Empire to advocate strength and maintain fear, and by the Rebel Alliance to inspire hope and win support for the fight. <em>Star Wars Propaganda</em> takes fans into the beloved epic story as never before, bringing the battle between these two sides to life in a fresh and brilliant way. </p><p><em>Star Wars Propaganda</em> includes fifty dazzling pieces of art representing all seven episodes--including material related to <em>Star Wars: The Force Awakens</em>--specially produced for this companion volume. Each page combines an original image and a short description detailing its history: the in-world artist who created it (either willingly or through coercion), where in the <em>Star Wars</em> galaxy it appeared, and why that particular location was targeted. </p><p>Packaged in a beautifully designed case and written by a franchise expert and insider, <em>Star Wars Propaganda</em> also includes ten removable art prints, and is sure to become a keepsake for every fan and graphic artist as well.</p><p></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A galactic history lesson, offering even the most devoted fans a deep dive into corners of the George Lucas films they may not have known.
