Review
"It is a highly useful volume that demonstrates throughout the frequent inability of the UK, even at its imperialistic zenith, to handle major foreign problems except in concert with other nations."--British Politics Group Newsletter
"...Young's analytical survey displays a masterful grasp of the important issues in a hundred-year period and will be useful to students for years to come."--British Foreign Policy
"It is well written, well organized, and very informative....The book should be in the library of any historian who teaches English or European history and it will make a wonderful source for lecture notes....Britain and the World in the Twentieth Century is a most impressive achievement."--Teaching History

Product Description
This book looks at all the main phases of British foreign policy from the 1890s to the 1990s. It not only explores such major events as the Boer War, Appeasement, and the Suez Crisis, but also looks well beyond traditional diplomacy, taking in strategic, technological, economic, and ideological factors, as well as looking at such subjects as the rise of propaganda agencies and the intelligence community. The author also details specific international relations and rivalries and charts domestic influences on policy.
