About this book
Reviews
“Effie Pedaliu’s new book does just this, and more, and is therefore to be heartily welcomed as a significant contribution to our understanding of this subject. … The nature of the Anglo-American and Italian achievement in this regard has been ably analysed and highlighted in this book, which is a very welcome addition to our knowledge of the origins of the Cold War in Europe.” (Saul Kelly, Diplomacy Statecraft, June, 2017)
“It is a very thoroughly researched monograph. The author has meticulously covered the government archives, researching the papers of several different departments in depth. … An invaluable bibliography also draws together an impressive range of materials written in both English and Italian. In covering all this material, Pedaliu has performed a valuable service and this study deserves to become one of the standard works on this surprisingly neglected period in British foreign policy.” (Richard Grayson, H-Net Reviews, h-net.org, August, 2005)
'Overall, this is a highly recommendable book. Far from being relevant solely to scholars interested in Italian history, it also offers interesting insights on the Attleegovernment's foreign policy and on the reconfiguration of Ango-American relations within the context of the Cold War.' - Ilaria Favretto, European History Quarterly
