Sumario:Speaking at West Point in 1962, Dean Acheson observed that Britain had lost an empire and had still to find a new role. This book explains why, in the following years, as Britain?s Labour government contemplated withdrawal from east of Suez, ministers came to see that Britain?s future role would be as a force within Europe.

This account of Anglo-German relations during the 1960s reveals fascinating insights into how both governments reacted.
