This book, first published in 1991, provides a major analysis of
the prelude to the US's Cold War maritime strategy, showing how
NATO's maritime forces were organised in the period. It examines
how the United States Navy and allied navies, particularly the
Royal Navy, were incorporated into the Alliance's nuclear and
conventional deterrent forces. It looks at the structure of the
main naval commands, the growth of Soviet maritime forces and the
impact of the flexible response strategy on NATO's naval posture in
the 1970s. Drawing upon many declassified documents, this account
fills an important gap in postwar literature on American seapower
and its relation to European security. It also addresses important
aspects of NATO strategy and organisation.
