This innovative study demonstrates with great clarity the
importance of the decline of British power in the creation of the
Cold War. The author subjects to detailed analysis the concerted
attempts made by the British wartime coalition to forge a perpetual
merger with the USA in international affairs to arrest this global
decline. He reveals the origins of this policy, the great efforts
made towards its realisation, and the ultimate impossibility of
fulfilling all of its aims. Dr Ryan uses the Polish and Greek
crises of the mid-I940s as case histories to demonstrate his thesis
that both the Churchill and Attlee governments recognised the need
for the American connection and to provide examples of how they set
about obtaining it. Thus, the book casts light on the beginnings of
British policy toward the United States that continues today.
Reissued in paperback by Cambridge University Press in 2004, Ryan
is also the author of The Fall of Che Guavara.
