Trade Review"Phillip E. Myers's Caution and Cooperation places Anglo-American relations during the Civil War within the broader context of the whole nineteenth century, arguing convincingly for the lack of any real chance of British intervention on the side of the Confederacy and dating the end-of-the-century Anglo-American rapprochement back about three decades. Based on extensive research in the United States and Great Britain, this major reinterpretation of the transatlantic special relationship is 'international history' in its truest sense." - Mary Ann Heiss, Editor, New Studies in Foreign Relations Series"
