Description

This up-to-date analysis tells the real story of Australia's changing relations with its two "great and powerful friends". Australian foreign relations can only be properly understood when the differing tensions in the triangular relationship between Australia, Britain and the United States are fully assessed. Examining a series of international crises - Munich, Pearl Harbour, the Cold War, Suez, the Malayan Emergency, Korea, and Vietnam - "Munich to Vietnam" is aimed at anyone interested in international relations and specifically Australian foreign policy over the last fifty years.
