Conflict over Convoys examines the Battle of the Atlantic from the
perspective of Anglo-American diplomacy, deepening our
understanding of Allied grand strategy, British industrial policy,
and operations TORCH and OVERLORD. Failure to build and maintain
enough ships to feed the people and wage war made Britain dependent
upon American-built merchant ships and American logistical support,
yet British strategists aspired to dominate Allied strategy, while
Roosevelt mismanaged merchant shipping allocations. The resulting
gap between strategic ambition and logistical reality embittered
the controversy over the 'Second Front'. Victory in the Atlantic
finally led to American dominance of Allied logistics diplomacy and
strategy. Conflict over Convoys relates these tensions to the
decline of British hegemony and the rise of the USA to global
influence.
