Of all the British \"amateur ambassadors\" none was more distinguished than Philip Kerr, 11th Marquis of Lothian (1882-1940). His tenure of office was brief -- Aug. 1939 to Dec. 1940 -- but it coincided with a crucial period in British \u0026amp; U.S. history. Recently-opened archives enable one to fill in some important gaps in the history of his life \u0026amp; achievements \u0026amp; to set Lothian's work in the context of British \u0026amp; U.S. policy-making. This book will shows the strengths \u0026amp; weaknesses of a non-career diplomat. In the end, the successes outweighed the failures, as is shown by examining Lothian's role as intermediary between Churchill \u0026amp; Roosevelt in the two episodes in Anglo-Amer. diplomacy during 1940, the Destroyers-for-Bases Deal \u0026amp; the origins of Lend-Lease.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Reynolds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1422374645\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781422374641\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e American Philosophical Society Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1983\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 65\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.25d","brand":"David Reynolds","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48444789096703,"sku":"9781422374641","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d7a88774-f286-4b9c-ae8d-e72759080f35.jpg?v=1777214565","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/lord-lothian-and-anglo-american-relations-david-reynolds-9781422374641","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
