About This Item
The text of the Entente was the work of two Foreign Secretaries - the Marquess of Lansdowne and Theophile Delcasse. It was no easy task, but it could hardly ever have been contemplated if Edward VII, on becoming King, had not won over public opinion in France through a combination of his own charm and immense eminence of his position as sovereign of the most powerful nation on earth. In this book, Ian Dunlop reveals how the cultural and social links established by Edward's personal diplomacy, made possible the fateful move towards alliance by Britain and France. He plays the Entente Cordiale in a wide context. He reviews the earlier attempts made by the young Queen Victoria and follows the ups - and more importantly the downs - of our relations with France against the broad background of the European situation. Edward himself plays, of course, the leading role.
