Hug Them Close

Meer over het boek

Peter Riddell turns his attention to the curious relationship between Tony Blair and George W. Bush in what is certain to be one of the best-selling political books of 2003. Placing Blair and Bush in the context of Anglo-American relations throughout history, Riddell traces their relationship from its early tensions, through 9/11 and the war in Afghanistan and onto Blair's apparent subservience to Bush over Iraq. He discovers a complex and often bizarre relationship rooted in a failed British foreign policy that will soon be forced to choose between America and Europe.
