  • Abstract
    Bomboozled, an unusual, important, and timely work of cultural history, originated with Susan Roy??s master??s thesis on the family fallout shelter. It is a beautifully designed, oversized book with over 300 photographs that, cumulatively, provide a snapshot of a ??propaganda campaign to convince the American people that they could survive a nuclear war.??
