Description and Table of Contents
Description
Based largely on British political and diplomatic records, this book traces 70 years of changing relationships between Britain and the USSR. The author, who has previously edited a book on Soviet foreign policy, draws on his own experience as British Ambassador in Moscow. He covers Britain's policy of armed intervention against the Bolsheviks in 1917, their formal alliance with the Soviets during World War II, post-war conflicts and the current implications of Gorbachev's reforms. The move from ostracism to dialogue is the central theme.
