Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines the rivalry between the US and Britain over China between World War II and the Korean War, a link that has been neglected by scholars distracted by the dominant theme of the Cold War. Finds that the two governments did not collaborate in any significant manner, that the succession from one imperial power to another was not particularly friendly, that the British considered the US fetish for antagonizing Mao Tse Tung misguided and dangerous, that the US missed its chance to consolidate power in the region and began the slide to Viet Nam in 1950, and that Britain had no choice by then but to tie their wagon to the wayward US in order to salvage the remnants of British imperial spoil.

Download or read book The British Army the Gurkhas and Cold War Strategy in the Far East 1947 1954 written by Raffi Gregorian and published by Springer. This book was released on 2002-05-10 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that postwar Britain's 'imperial over-extension' has been exaggerated. Britain developed and adjusted its defence strategy based upon the perceived Communist threat and available resources. It was especially successful at adapting to meet the strategic and resource challenges from the Far East from 1947-54. There British and Gurkha forces were deployed only in contingencies that threatened vital British interests, while the U.S. and Commonwealth allies were persuaded to accept key wartime missions, thus preserving Britain's ability to fight in Western Europe.
