Churchill s Grand Alliance

Opis

A provocative reassessment of the Speical Relationship between England and the US from 1940 to 1957. Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Churchill, Bevin and Attlee all tried to persuade America into looking after British imperial interests in the post-war period, but as the Cold War dawned the Americans were only interested in using British help when it suited them. Britains last attempt to act independently of America - Suez - ended disastrously, and the book ends with Anthony Edens removal from power under American pressure.
