Publisher Description: When the War of Independence ended in 1783 many doubted Americans' ability to build a nation. Today the United States occupies a position comparable to that of Britain at the zenith of its power. Britain and America since Independence deals with Anglo-American relations in the widest sense. It shows how the transfer of hegemony from the British Empire to the United States affected the way Britons and Americans viewed one another, and its effect on the evolving cultural, economic, and political connections between the two countries. |
