What North Atlantic Triangle
This article questions the notion of the North Atlantic Triangle as developed by John Bartlet Brebner and asks whether it ever really existed in the form that he suggested.

It also suggests that there is a basic flaw in the North Atlantic Tr…

Moreover, the theory has the apparent attractiveness of enabling students to intensively study one leader and his movement and then draw more ge…
