The authors explore in detail the rivalry for power and wealth between England and America.

The struggle to find peace at Paris in 1919, hold the banks rebuilt Europe in the 1920's, the alliance to defeat Germany, roles in the Cold War, and creation of NATO are all part of the history. The book is also a story of everyday life and high politics. Same language, same culture, shared art, and inventions highlight the history.
