Britain, America and the Sinews of War 1914-1918 (RLE The First World War)

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book sets out the economic, and in particular, the financial relations between Britain and America during the war, setting it in the context of the more familiar political and diplomatic relationship. Particular attention is paid to the British war missions sent out to the USA, which were the agents for much of the financial and economic negotiation, and which are rescued here from underserved historical obscurity.
