Norway and the United States, 1905-1955

This history of the diplomatic relations between Norway and the US begins with the Norwegian separation from Sweden, and carries through World Wars I and II, and into the Cold War. It traces the process by which the two countries, with established traditions of non- involvement in European wars, moved away from those traditions toward multilateral collective security roles in world affairs. Not a definitive work, but an introduction and overview. Well-annotated. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
