Separate Agendas - Churchill, Eisenhower, and Anglo-American Relations, 1953-1955

Informationen zum Autor Daniel C. Williamson is assistant professor of history at the University of Hartford. Klappentext Separate Agendas examines Anglo-American diplomatic relations in the first half of the 1950s through the use of selected case studies.
