The Lion and the Springbok (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780521824538)

This unique account of the "uneasy special relationship" between Britain and South Africa surveys all political, economic, cultural, and geostrategic aspects. Starting from the bruising experience of the South African Boer War, Ronald Hyam and Peter Henshaw trace the countries' deteriorating relationship through a series of crises to South Africa's departure from the Commonwealth in 1961 and subsequent return, post-apartheid, in 1994.
