About this book

Each page of this book is filled with front covers from the Los Angeles Times covering the major events of the 1940s. 

The front pages in the ‘40s were covered in World War Two news for the first half of the decade, with the attack on Pearl Harbour in 1941 dominating the news worldwide. Early headlines include the Nazi invasion of Europe, Roosevelt’s ‘Arsenal of Democracy’ speech as well as Gandhi’s death in 1948.

There is also comprehensive coverage of the Fort Lauderdale hurricane in 1947, and President Truman’s recognition of Israel.
