In this comprehensively revised and updated new edition of the highly-acclaimed text, John Dumbrell assesses how and why the Anglo-American special relationship found a new lease of life under Blair as Britain repeatedly "chose" the US in its evolving foreign policy orientation rather than Europe.There was, he argues, no inevitability about this response to the post 9/11 international situation and its long-term rationale and prospects still remain in doubt.
Industry Reviews
Praise for the previous edition:
"Original in its approach and content... its substance and its insights make it a major contribution to the literature on the anglo-American Special Relationship."--Peter G. Boule, American Politics Review
"A much-needed and highly readable study of the Anglo-American political relationship, which should become the standard text for students needing a swift and authoritative road into the chief issues in post-war Anglo-American relations."--Nicholas J. Cull, Twentieth Century British History
"A useful survey of the evolution of the Anglo-American special relationship in the second half of the twentieth century...The author's judgment...is sound and the verdicts on the episodes recounted fair and balanced."--Pauline Neville-Jones, The World Today
