The relationship between Britain and America has been one of the
most important bilateral relationships the world has ever seen.
This work covers the whole of the 20th century and employs selected
historical detail to expose this complex relationship in its true
light. Dobson rejects the claim that the US was ever hegemonical.
He explores the special relationship between the two nations paying
close attention to: World War I; inter-war economic relations; the
Suez Crisis; Iran in the 1960s; Grenada in 1983; and the Gulf War.
These events demonstrate that America has had to bargain with
Britain, and not always get its own way. However, the two nations
have co-operated in every major crisis from the Great War to the
Gulf War, and together promoted liberal democracy and capitalism.
This story reveals both more interdependence and conflict than has
been recognized in the past. Nuclear, intelligence, defence and
other links between the USA and Britain continue to this day, but
the importance of the special relationship has diminished for both
countries.
