First published in 1985, The English-Speaking Alliance is the story of how post-war Labour governments sustained the image of Britain as world power and laid the foundations of the West's Cold War foreign policy. It is told from sources in the British, American and Australian archives, some of which have been used for the first time.

This history gives a balanced and judicious introduction to the immensely complex and controversial subject of Arab-Israel conflice, weaving different strands of the story into a single coherent narrative, thus making it essential reading for all students studying conflict in the Middle East.
