  Book Description
  The first
comprehensive account of British policy towards China, Japan and Korea from the final stages of the Second World War to
the outbreak of the Korean War, placed in the broader context of Far Eastern developments, the beginnings of the Cold
War, dealings with the Commonwealth and, above all, relations with the United States. Based upon research in British,
American and Australian archives, this book examines the tensions that emerged within the Anglo-American relationship as
the United States sought to dominate the East Asian agenda and Britain agonised over the international role it should
play in the region. That tension intensified over what the British perceived as an American failure to devise a post-war
plan for East Asia other than the containment of Japan. As Communist threats inside China and Korea gained momentum,
Britain, with valuable Far Eastern interests to protect, could not afford the Asian mainland to turn ‘red’
and found itself drawn increasingly into East Asian affairs far more than it desired.
  
 
Reviews
  "Those who used to rely on Christopher Thorne, whose Allies of a
Kind (1978) dealt with the war against Japan, will now have to follow another Christopher...[He] will be closely read in
the future." J. M. Lee, Asian Affairs
  
  "A solid and impressive work
which will prove a very useful addition for students and academics seeking regional variation on post-war Anglo-American
foreign policies and the origins of the Cold War." Alex Spelling, University of
Aberdeen
  
  "Historians interested in Anglo-American relations in the immediate post-war years
will find this trawl through the official archives fascinating and instructive." Sir Hugh
Cortazzi, The Japan Society
  
  'The post-war British effort to retain a place of prominence in
deciding world affairs is a sad tale that Christopher Baxter ably tells in his study discussing the early Cold War years
in Japan, China and Korea...Among this study's strengths is its description of Australia's role as 'a major sub-plot' in
post-war Anglo-American relations in East Asia, documenting how Britain failed to persuade its Commonwealth protege to
expand its regional security capabilities...Extensive research in archival collections stretching from Britain to the
United States to Australia and a long list of secondary sources supports Baxter's findings. Making excellent use of
remarks in primary documents, the author [also] exposes hidden British contempt for US leaders.' - James Matray, The Journal of Imperial and Commonwealth History
