This is the first monographlength study that charts the coercive diplomacy of the administrations of Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford as practised against their British ally in order to persuade Edward Heaths government to follow a more amenable course throughout the Year of Europe and to convince Harold Wilsons governments to lessen the severity of proposed defence cuts. Such diplomacy proved effective against Heath but rather less so against Wilson. It is argued that relations between the two sides were often strained, indeed, to the extent that the most special elements of the relationship, that of intelligence and nuclear cooperation, were suspended. Yet, the relationship also witnessed considerable cooperation. This book offers new perspectives on US and UK policy towards British membership of the European Economic Community; demonstrates how US dtente policies created strain in the special relationship; reveals the temporary shutdown of USUK intelligence and nuclear cooperation; provides new insights in USUK defence cooperation, and reevaluates the USUK relationship throughout the IMF Crisis.
