Losing an Empire and Finding a Role: Britain, the USA, NATO and Nuclear Weapons, 1964-70 2012th Edition

“This illuminating book is a prime example of the sort of study that is now possible on the Western side. Stoddart draws skillfully on newly declassified British documents to tell the story of nuclear policymaking in Great Britain during the crucial six-year administration of Prime Minister Harold Wilson and his Labour Party.” (flight.com.gr, Issue 2, February 6, 2024)

‘Making sense of the interwoven strategic, poltical, diplomatic, and technical strands of Britain’s nuclear policy in the late 1960s is a daunting task, but Stoddart has done it.’ – Recommended by Choice
