Reviews
"A useful read for anyone with an interest in American foreign policy, Spanish-American relations, or the Cold War."-- The NYMAS Review, "A well-written and important book that will contribute greatly to the historiography of the United States toward Franco's Spain."--David A. Messenger, University of Wyoming, author of Hunting Nazis in Franco's Spain, "Bowen has made an important contribution to the scholarship on both Truman and US relations with Spain. Bowen reminds us that the personal prejudices of presidents do impact policy. In this case, they eventually gave way to the national interest."-- Missouri Historical Review, "A balanced, behind-the-scenes account of the struggle of these two nations to find common ground."--Larry W. Blomstedt, Galveston College, author of Truman, Congress, and Korea, "A useful read for anyone with an interest in American foreign policy, Spanish-American relations, or the Cold War."-- The NYMAS Review "The detail in Lause's account is impressive."-- Gateway , the magazine of the Missouri History Museum "Extensive notes, a bibliography, and an index round out this erudite chronicle, highly recommended."-- Midwest Book Review, "Beyond the implications for the Cold War presidency, the work provides an excellent departure point for students and scholars interested in exploring how Spain complicated bigger postwar initiatives such as confronting the legacy of fascism, US attitudes toward human rights in the immediate aftermath of World War II, and the construction of the Cold War transatlantic alliance."-- H-Net, "A well-written and important book that will contribute greatly to the historiography of the United States toward Franco's Spain."-- David A. Messenger , University of Wyoming, author of Hunting Nazis in Franco's Spain, "Extensive notes, a bibliography, and an index round out this erudite chronicle, highly recommended."-- Midwest Book Review, "The detail in Lause's account is impressive."-- Gateway , the magazine of the Missouri History Museum, "A balanced, behind-the-scenes account of the struggle of these two nations to find common ground."-- Larry W.

Synopsis
Well-deployed primary sources and brisk writing by Wayne H. Bowen make this an excellent framework for understanding the evolution of U.S. policy toward Spain, and thus how a nation facing a global threat develops strategic relationships over time., Well-deployed primary sources and brisk writing by Wayne H. Bowen make this an excellent framework for understanding the evolution of U.S. policy toward Spain, and thus how a nation facing a global threat develops strategic relationships over time. President Harry S. Truman harbored an abiding disdain for Spain and its government. During his presidency (1945-1953), the State Department and the Department of Defense lobbied Truman to form an alliance with Spain to leverage that nation's geostrategic position, despite Francisco Franco's authoritarian dictatorship. The eventual alliance between the two countries came only after years of argument for such a shift by nearly the entire U.S. diplomatic and military establishment. This delay increased the financial cost of the 1953 defense agreements with Spain, undermined U.S. planning for the defense of Europe, and caused dysfunction over foreign policy at the height of the Cold War.
