Rezensionen
'This is an outstanding book dealing with one of the key issues in postwar Anglo-German relations and the first work of its kind to give due prominence to British concerns about a revival of German militarism after 1945. It contains numerous new insights into the foreign policies of the postwar Attlee and Churchill governments and provides an invaluable contribution to the study of this important period in British diplomacy. The detailed account of the workings of British policy in the Cold War era combined with the pertinent analysis of twentieth-century British attitudes to Germany make this book essential reading for students of British foreign policy and the Cold War.' - Jeremy Black, University of Exeter
