Through the eyes of Churchill, Roosevelt, and their successors, Robin Renwick traces the development of the Anglo-American relationship and the part it played in shaping the post-war world.

Detecting once again a whiff of the 1930s in the air, he concludes that, as one of the ties that binds Europe and North America, the relationship remains an important one, and not only to Britain and the United States.
