Description
"From one of its keenest observers, a brilliant, witty journey through the "special relationship" between England and America which has done so much to shape the world, from World War 2 to Brexit, through the lens of the fateful bonds between President and Prime Minister"--,Provided by publisher.
Description
Buruma examines the "special relationship" between Britain and America that has done so much to shape the world, from World War II to Brexit. To do so, he specifically looks at the bonds between presidents and prime ministers. At the heart of the book is a series of shrewd and absorbing character studies of the president-prime minster dyads. Buruma believes it is impossible to understand the populist uprising in either country, from 2016 to the present, without reference to Trump and Boris Johnson-- though ironically they are also the key to understanding the special relationship's demise. -- adapted from jacket
