For most of that time dealings between Britain and the United States have remained co-operative, cordial, and supportive. In the beginning, however, relations were confrontational and discordant: the two nations waged war against each other twice—in the War of Independence and in the War of 1812—and have often disagreed over trade, finance, and foreign policy. This volume demonstrates the changing nature of Anglo-American relations and focuses, in particular, on the strengths and fragilities of the "special relationship" that developed in the aftermath of the WWII and continues to the present day. The Historical Dictionary of Anglo-American Relations surveys Anglo-American relations from 1607 to the present and covers key events, individuals, and issues that have played a part in its history. Through a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, appendixes, and hundreds of cross-referenced entries—with an emphasis on the political and economic relationship between Britain and the United States but also featuring the cultural links between the two—this comprehensive and easily accessible reference tool will delight those interested in the history of these two countries. Author Biography Sylvia Ellis is Principal Lecturer in American History at Northumbria University. Review The work is strengthened by both an excellent introduction and an extensive, topically arranged bibliography....Those familiar with Scarecrow Press's Historical Dictionary series know the extraordinary level of scholarship behind the works, and the most recent addition is no exception. Recommended for academic libraries and large public libraries. * Booklist *This dictionary includes a bibliography, chronology, and lists of key ministers. The author's 27-page introduction is a fine piece of scholarship in its own right. * CHOICE *In general we get a good mixture of persons, treaties, conferences, laws, battles, policies and great events. Some entries cannot be categorized like the item on War Brides. This is a workmanlike book, which has its place in Anglo-American studies. It is very well made. * s *The author is well qualified and has written many things on this up and down relationship between two nations. * American Reference Books Annual *Ellis is well placed to compare and contrast the diplomatic goings-on between England and America, having been born and raised in Great Britain and obtained a master's degree from the University of Rhode Island. As this is a dictionary, entries define rather than explain, and most are concise. As might be expected, the emphasis is on the political and economic links between the two nations, but cultural exchanges, such as the Beatles' celebrated 1964 appearance on these shores, are given their due. Clear and straightforward, this compact volume is generally excellent for its intended purpose of ready reference. * Library Journal * Long Description Anglo-American relations have been a crucial factor in international relations for over two centuries.
