Notes
In this book, the author sets out for the first time the economic - and in particular the financial - relations between the United Kingdom and the United States during the war, setting it in the context of the more familiar political and diplomatic relationship. She pays particular attention to the British War Missions sent out to the United States, which were the agents for much of the financial and economic negotiations. What emerges is Britain's dependence on the U.S. during the war, and the extent to which the U.S. attempted to use this dependence to force changes in British foreign policy,
