去年，卡梅伦在访问华盛顿时说：在危急时刻，英美两国明白，双方总是可以互相信赖的。卡梅伦首相与奥巴马一同站在白宫洒满阳光的草坪上，卡梅伦唤起了双方对各自先辈的回忆：他们并肩作战，将希特勒的军队从法国驱赶出去。卡梅伦传达了一条明确的信息：七十年后的今天，当英国需要与美国保持一种特殊关系时，什么也比不了二战的特殊魔力。 <span word="In">In</span> <span

实际上，在英国向德国宣战后可怕的两年中，英国不知道美国会对其提供帮助。丘吉尔政府摇摆不定，时而坚信罗斯福不会让希特勒控制整个欧洲，因此会向英国提供援助;时而又怀疑罗斯福政府中的一些人，认为他们梦想着大英帝国会毁灭，然后蚕食其资产。英国竭尽全力及时地拉动美国参战。在罗斯福的默许下，数百名英国间谍涌入中立的美国，秘密监视孤立派政治家、轴心国外交官和纳粹的同情者，他们还发表演讲、进行电台广播，同时在亲英的报纸上刊登故事，来更加公开地争取民心。在这部精彩绝伦的新书中，作者<span word="Lynne">Lynne</span> <span word="Olson">Olson</span>结合历史学家的全面性和传记作家对人性的探寻，向读者展示了他们的行动是如何地惊险。 <span word="Those">Those</span> <span word="Angry">Angry</span> <span word="Days">Days</span> <span

美国人感到正是英国人狡猾的宣传和保证才把美国卷入了第一次世界大战，这些感受还是有原因的。作者为反战主义辩护，解释了美国人为什么这样想。二十年后，许多美国人认为欧洲争吵不休的大国再次似乎不愿意或不能够保卫民主。作者还较客观地指出：一系列的大人物不管是军官、议员、报业巨头或是耶鲁和哈佛大学的学生都在质疑英国和纳粹德国之间是否存在任何道义上的不同，这种观点常常带有一丝反犹太主义色彩。 <span

本书写道：后来成为战时指挥官的马歇尔一直拒绝向四面楚歌的英国提供帮助，这种情况一直持续到1941年年末。尽管马歇尔基本上从来没有公开反对向英国提供援助，但是当来自美国的援助一点点流向英国时，他对之进行了阻止;马歇尔还暗中反对政府的政策。几名美国高级军官实际上是亲德的。在本书中，罗斯福优柔寡断至极、埋头研究民意调查、等着被推入战争罗斯福就是这么告诉他的财政部长的。珍珠港袭击发生后，在美的英国军官用香槟酒庆祝，甚至在那以后，罗斯福总统仍然犹豫不决，认为向日本开战和在第二战线与德国开战这两种民意一直存在区别。最后，希特勒率先向美国开战，从而为罗斯福做了决定。
