Sir Nicholas Henderson

The United Kingdom's ambassador to the United States at the time of the Falklands War in 1982, who did a highly successful job of winning American support for the military campaign to eject Argentina from the islands, died on Monday. Today's Guardian carries an extensive obituary which is well worth ten minutes of your time.
