The tumultuous events of the Russian Revolution were matched by dramatic shifts in graphic art and design that continue to influence our visual landscape. David King; an internationally acclaimed graphic designer; selected the posters reproduced here from his own unparalleled collection. Constructivist posters; socialist advertising; and biting political satire are all represented; as are artists such as Alexander Rodchenko; El Lissitzky; and Gustav Klutsis. King sets the posters in context and profiles the art directors whose vision played a vital role in creating these striking works.

They may have looked pretty but they were deadly opponents. Those interested in Napoleonic history can't go wrong following the exploits of Albert Rocca as he participates in many of Napoleon's campaigns.
