Challenging standard interpretations of American dominance and French weakness in postwar Western Europe, Creswell argues that France played a key role in shaping the cold war order. He sketches the successful French challenge to the U.S. that ultimately resulted in security arrangements preferred by the French but acceptable to the Americans.
