Macmillan, Eisenhower and the Cold War Aldous, Richard. creator text bibliography biography ie Dublin Four Courts Press 2005 monographic eng print 205 pages ; 24 cm "When Harold Macmillan became prime minister in 1957 he promised to restore Britain's pride after the humiliations of the Suez crisis. 'The British people', he declared, 'would never accept the position of a second rate power'. No one seemed better equipped for the task." "The first prime minister to master the sound bites and photo opportunities of the television age, Macmillan had a penchant for the dramatic and flamboyant. During the Second World War, he had been dazzled by the summits between Churchill and Roosevelt - 'the emperor of the east and the emperor of the west'. Macmillan now set out to walk in their footsteps with President Eisenhower as latter-day emperor. This book follows Macmillan on his Churchillian quest, from the theatrical Moscow 'voyage of discovery', via the U-2 crisis, to the acrimony of the 1960 Paris summit."--Jacket. The road to the summit -- If you want to get ahead, get a hat -- Staying in the big game -- It has gone off rather well -- One chance in a million -- A great and tragic event. Richard Aldous.
