Heath, Nixon and the Rebirth of the Special Relationship cover

This book reveals that 1969-74 was a crucial period for the special relationship. The Heath Government attempted to reverse Britain's decline as a great power by forging an American-European special relationship out of the Anglo-American relationship. Simultaneously the Nixon Administration tried to recoup the global position of the United States.

'Rossbach's work is a solid contribution to an understanding of the Anglo-American special relationship.' -Ryan Shaffer, State University of New York, Stony Brook, English Historical Review
