Distinguished British diplomatic historian at Yale University surveys the century-long decline in Britain's standing from international powerhouse in 1865 to the more diminished version by 1980. Obvious explanations include the impact of war, decolonisation, economic decline, being left behind in technological advance etc. Whether the position is any better post-Brexit is for debate. 416 pages.
