This lively and engaging cultural history explores a series of
interrelated questions about the U.S.'s influence on British
society in the years following World War II. How was American
culture disseminated into Britain? Why did large sections of
British society embrace American customs? What picture did British
citizens form of American society and politics? And how did the
Cold War's end and the September 11 attacks affect that picture?
Here, author John F. Lyons draws on cinema, literature,
contemporary journalism, unpublished oral interviews, and a host of
other sources to explore not only the ways in which American
society impacted Britain, but the ways in which America's complex
identity was refracted in the minds of the citizens of its closest
ally.
