Pages : 710
Book Description
Excerpt from The Cambridge History of British Foreign Policy, 1783-1919, Vol. 2 Besides those charged with the responsibilities or engaged in the work of the Cambridge University Press - which has recently suffered a very' heavy loss in the death of Mr A. R. Waller, for eleven years Secretary of the Syndicate - we have to thank more friends than can be enumerated here for their aid in the production of the present volume. Use has again been made of the generous loan of the Wallace Papers, already acknowledged in the Preface to our first volume. We have also to thank the relations of the late Sir Andrew Buchanan, G.C.B., and more especially Mr Henry Mellish of Hadsock Priory, Worksop, for allowing us to peruse two volumes of Sir Andrew's private correspondence in the years 1863-4, when he was our Ambassador at Berlin - one of them consisting of letters from his predecessor Lord Bloomfield, then at Vienna, and the other of miscellaneous correspondence. The former, in particular, is full of interest. They have, also, favoured us with the loan of Sir Andrew's letters concerning the Russian repudiation in 1870 of the Black Sea obligations of the Treaty of March 30th, 1856, privately printed for the use of the Foreign Office. Through Mr G. M. Trevelyan's kind intervention, access has been granted us by the present Earl Grey to the Howick Papers, throwing light on the period 1830-4, dealt with in Mr Trevelyan's Lord Grey of the Reform Bill. Among leading authorities on the subject of this work who have continued to interest themselves in its progress, we desire again to express our obligations to the Right Hon. Lord Sanderson, G.C.B., to the Right Hon. Sir Ernest Satow, G.C.M.G., whose most valuable Diplomatic Practice has, we are glad to say, already reached a second edition, to Professor Sir C. H. Firth, F.B.A., and other friends. No continued aid or encouragement would have been more valued by us than that of the late Sir George Prothero, in whom the study of History' in this country' has lost one of its chief guides and controllers. We have, as before, to thank Miss A. D. Greenwood for undertaking the complicated task of compiling the Index to this Volume, and Miss M. Pate for her unwearying assistance in preparing it for publication. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

British Foreign Policy 1874-1914
Author: Sneh Mahajan
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134510551
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 279
Book Description
A challenging analysis of British Foreign Policy is provided at a time when Britain possessed the biggest Empire that humankind has ever known. In this Empire India had a unique position, comprising 97 per cent of Britain's Asiatic Empire. All British statesmen deemed it essential to maintain their hold over India whatever the risk or cost of doing so. This work focuses on aspects that have been hitherto marginalized. It also contributes to debates surrounding the origins of the First World War, the multipolar diplomacy of the late nineteenth century, and the nature of imperial connections.

The Foreign Office and British Diplomacy in the Twentieth Century
Author: Gaynor Johnson
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136871969
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 251
Book Description
This book examines the evolution of the Foreign Office in the 20th century and the way in which it has responded to Britain's changing role in international affairs. The last century was one of unprecedented change in the way foreign policy and diplomacy were conducted. The work of 'The Office' expanded enormously in the 20th century, and oversaw the transition from Empire to Commonwealth, with the merger of the Foreign and Colonial Offices taking place in the 1960s. The book focuses on the challenges posed by waging world war and the process of peacemaking, as well as the diplomatic gridlock of the Cold War. Contributions also discusses ways in which the Foreign and Commonwealth Office continues to modernise to meet the challenges of diplomacy in the 21st century. This book was previously published as a special issue of the journal Contemporary British History.
