Content:
After World War Two the question of Palestine became a major concern for both London and Washington. Drawing on material from archives in Great Britain and the United States Miriam Joyce Haron describes the perceptions and policies on both sides of the Atlantic that prevented genuine Anglo-American cooperation. The author shows how the inability of the British and American governments to work together contributed to failure of the United Nations partition plan to establish an independent Jewish state and an independent Arab state in Palestine, and how after creation of Israel the United States appeared willing to follow Britain's lead regarding the disposition of Arab Palestine.
