I was reading the Anglo-American history special article in the April ‘07 issue of BBC History Magazine, and stumbled on the following passage (and promptly thought it would make a great AH timeline ):
“...surging American power and transatlantic rapprochement – prompted some remarkable proposals by the 1890s. The American naval captain Albert Mahan wrote on the “possibilities of an Anglo-American reunion”. The British jurist AV Dicey even called for a common citizenship.”
So how can we get people to take these proposals seriously, or possibly even adopt them? What would be the effects of the British Empire and the United States joining together? Could this have any effect on the Imperial Federation movement?
