Andrew Kelly examines the development of the security relationship between Australia, New Zealand and the United States in the early Cold War. The book follows strategy and diplomacy from the end of the Second World War through the mid-1950s, placing the ANZUS alliance within the changing international setting.
The analysis compares the interests and expectations of the three countries and follows the negotiations through which their relationship took shape. Archival evidence supports the discussion of policy choices, regional concerns and disagreements. The book gives readers a historical account of alliance formation that attends to the different positions of its participants.
