Nota di contenuto |
|
Some mysterious sympathy: the foundations of friendship -- Evident advantages: origins and objectives -- Seward's chimerical project: public reaction and ratification -- No longer Russian America: taking possession of Alaska -- Paying for the "new national ice-house": approval and appropriation -- Very uneasy and vexed: international reactions to the purchase -- That snow-bound wilderness: from treaty to territory. |
