Churchill and the Myth of the Special Relationship

by Liberty and Power

I encourage readers to check out William Boyd's essay on"Churchill and the Myth of the Special Relationship". Although it was published in the Times Literary Supplement of May 13 and it’s now behind subscription, I came across a copy online. You can read it here for free.

Oh, and don’t miss John Maynard Keynes’ appraisal of the terms of Lend-Lease.

Interesting. Didn't you once tell me that FDR had called Churchill a "drunken bum?"
