This book analyzes British efforts to preserve its naval supremacy during the 1920s and the resulting resurgence of the Anglo-American naval and diplomatic antagonisms leading up to, including, and immediately following the Geneva Naval Conference of 1927.
During World War I, Britain''s naval supremacy enabled it to impose economic blockades and interdiction of American neutral shipping. The United States responded by building ''a navy second to none'', one so powerful that Great Britain could not again successfully challenge America''s vital economic interests. This book reveals that when the United States offered to substitute naval equality for its emerging naval supremacy, the British, nonetheless, used the resulting two major international arms-control conferences of the 1920s to ensure its continued naval dominance.
