Riassunto

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.

Robin William Renwick, Baron Renwick of Clifton KCMG is a crossbench peer in the House of Lords. He enjoyed a long career at the Foreign Office culminating in a posting as British ambassador to the United States between 1991 and 1995.

Recensione

"Fighting with Allies matches the outstanding service of the author as one of Britain's most distinguished ambassadors to Washington. Sir Robin explores with erudition and flair the subtle and complex special relationship between the United States and Britain, so indispensable during the Cold War. He shows its relevance to the post-Cold War world as well as the need for adaptation." --Henry A. Kissinger

"No player in the complex game of Anglo-American relations is better equipped to comment than Robin Renwick, and the timing of his analysis couldn't be more welcome or more urgent." --Raymond Seitz

"Very,very timely." --Sir Michael Fallon, Secretary of State for Defence
