Fifty Years of Canada-United States Defense Cooperation : The Road from Ogdensburg

In this volume, contributors from both sides of the border explain the multi-faceted character of 50 years of defence co-operation between Canada and the USA.

Part one begins by examining the efforts of both countries to secure the continent during World War II, then goes on to place bilateral military co-operation in the broader context of Western collective defence during the Cold War.

Part two looks closely at the past, present and future of the North American Aerospace Defense Command, Canada-US naval co-operation and the prospects for trans-Atlantic security relations.

This volume provides a rich anthology on the defence partnership which should prove useful for both the beginner and veteran scholar of Canada-US relations.
