Description

Britain's Korean War: Cold War Diplomacy, Strategy and Security 1950-53

This book assesses the strains within the 'Special Relationship' between London and Washington during the Korean War, offering a new perspective on British influence. The interactions between key figures from both sides are examined, revealing how British concerns evolved over time.

By the end of the war, British fears had shifted from the Soviet Union to the United States as the greater threat to world peace. This book provides valuable insights into British and US foreign policy and military strategy during the Cold War era.
