Description

"Suez 1956 was the greatest political crisis of the 1950s, which tested the impartiality of the British Civil Service almost to breaking point. Yet there has been no proper or systematic study of the role of Whitehall in the Suez Crisis. This volume seeks to remedy this deficiency by focusing on the parts played by key individuals in vital posts at crucial times in order to show how the policy process worked during the crisis.". "Each contribution deals with a key 'Whitehall warrior' and seeks to define their private and public attitudes to events in order to determine what influence they had on policy making and to highlight any dilemmas they may have faced."--BOOK JACKET.
