Beschreibung
To date, the Heath-Nixon years have been widely portrayed as marking a low-point in the history of Anglo-American relations – even the end of the 'special relationship'; using a wealth of archival material on both sides of the Atlantic, and examining a range of global developments, Allies Apart offers a fresh interpretation of this pivotal period.

Andrew Preston, Clare College, University of Cambridge, UK
'Allies Apart articulates a credible, concise and convincing new perspective on the development of the 'special relationship', raising revisionary ideas about its perception and utility amongst top-level officialdom...Thoroughly researched and argued, it should serve both as a valuable monograph contribution and as a useful compliment to recent collections of this era...' - Alex Spelling, University of Aberdeen, Contemporary British History
'...well researched work that has also the great merit to fit European integration history into a broader international and European narrative.' -Journal of European Integration History
