Citizens of London profiles three Americans, Averell Harriman, Edward R. Murrow and John Gilbert Winant, who helped shape the Anglo-American partnership during World War II. Set in bombed London, it traces Lend-Lease diplomacy, frontline broadcasts and ambassadorial influence that shifted U.S. policy.

Olson's narrative blends biography and political history, focusing on personalities, close ties with Winston Churchill, and how personal diplomacy altered public opinion in the United States.

Recommended for readers of diplomatic and WWII history. Published by National Geographic Books in paperback.

  • Profiles of Harriman, Murrow and Winant
  • Origins of Lend-Lease and U.S.-UK cooperation
  • Vivid wartime London scenes and media history

This seller was incredible. I purchased an inexpensive (used) book and was almost immediately notified that it shipped on the same day I ordered it. I received it within 2 days. It was exactly as described - it looked like it had never even been read! Great service & a great product. Thanks!
