Few indeed of those old enough to remember the Suez crisis cannot also recall with extraordinary clarity where they were when they heard of the Anglo-French intervention, the first shock of dismay or delight, the quarrels that split families and friends, the despair as the adventure fizzled out in abject failure. What did it really matter; what is its relevance today? `Suez was a watershed,' says Lady Gaitskell; `It doomed the Empire,' says Lord Boothhy; `It was the beginning of' the end,' says Lord Salisbury. `I dont think,' says A. J. P. 'Taylor, 'it's made so much difference in the long run.' This is not just another hook about the Suez operation : it is about what people thought and said and wrote, both at the time and recollected in tranquillity. It is a debate in which some five hundred speaker participate: personalities of international fame and men in the street who could not influence the decision-making but whose lives were no less radically affected. Russell Braddon has woven together these strands into a tapestry w'.*h vividly portrays the rights and wrongs, the pros and cons, the immediate results and long term consequences of Suez, 1956. `As to who wins the debate,' he concludes, `you are the adjudicator.' Whatever the judgment there can be no doubt that he has carried out his task with lucidity, skill and objectivity. Size: 8vo. Inscribed By Author. Codice articolo 140532
