Counterinsurgency Wars and the Anglo-American Alliance: The Special Relationship on the Rocks

By Andrew Mumford

Book Overview

Andrew Mumford challenges the notion of a "special relationship" between the United States and United Kingdom in diplomatic and military affairs, the most vaunted and, he says, exaggerated of associations in the post-1945 era. Though they are allies to be sure, national self-interest and domestic politics have often undercut their relationship.
