Having studied History and Government and Politics at undergraduate level at the University of Kent at Canterbury, David Wilcox completed the MA course in Propaganda, Persuasion and History at the same institution. After a year out to work in business I returned to the University of Kent to continue my interest in propaganda at Ph.D level, while in receipt of the Andy MacNab scholarship. David R. Willcox has recently completed his PhD, which forms the basis for this book, at the University of Kent at Canterbury.
