How America really feels towards England
Samuel E. Moffett examines the relationship between the United States and Great Britain. He concludes that the current, ongoing relationship depends upon the present policies of each nation and not on ancient history or sentimentalism. American policy is to be the dominant power in the Western hemisphere, and if this principle can be accepted by the British there should not be any problems with maintaining a harmonious relationship.
