"In Twisting the Lion's Tail, John E. Moser roots out the causes and consequences of this resurgent distrust of "perfidious Albion.""--BOOK JACKET.
"Through rigorous analysis, Moser shows that 20th century American Anglophobia outstrips the two causes which are usually called upon to explain it - isolationist tendencies and the Anglophobia of recent immigrants to the U.S. In addition to these traditional explanations, Moser finds an Anglophobia running far deeper through American culture, rooted in the American national mythology, which continued to cast the British monarchy and empire as antithetical to the ideals of liberty and equality.
Twisting the Lion's Tail follows the trajectory of American Anglophobia up to the emerging Cold War - when only the global challenge of Stalins Soviet Union could persuade most Americans that a long-term association with Great Britain was necessary or even desirable."--BOOK JACKET.
