Losing The Blanket: Australia and The End of Britain's Empire -by- David Goldsworthy. Australian History. Australian Political History. When Britain's sprawling empre wound down with unexpected speed in the 1960s, Australia lost a comforting "security blanket"and had to struggle to re-establish and protect itself ina volatile and threatening world.

Documents now available reveal the effects of post-imperialism upon Australian policies in key areas such as defence planning in Southeast Asia, the politics of the Commonwealth, the European Union, Australia's own colonial policy and relations with Britain itself; as Menzies and then Holt looked to protect Australia's interests, the groundwork was laid for Australia's involvement in Vietnam and for the pattern of Australia's foreign relations today.
