Sommario/riassunto |

The Historical Dictionary of Anglo-American Relations surveys Anglo-American relations from 1607 to the present and covers key events, individuals, and issues that have played a part in its history. With an emphasis on the political and economic relationship between Britain and the United States, but also featuring the cultural links between the two. This is done through a list of acronyms and abbreviations, a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, appendices, and hundreds of cross-referenced entries. |
