It argues that this wasnt just a random real estate deal, dubbed "Sewards Folly," but a strategic move driven by both Russian and American interests. Russia aimed to divest itself of a territory that was hard to defend, while the U.S. sought to expand its influence in the Pacific and tap into Alaskas resources.</p><p>The book examines the economic incentives for the purchase, such as the potential for exploiting Alaskas natural resources, including furs, fish, and minerals. It analyzes the geopolitical considerations, focusing on the U.S.s desire to counter British influence in the Pacific and establish a strategic foothold in the region.</p><p>By presenting evidence from diplomatic correspondence, government documents, and newspaper articles, the book details the debates surrounding the ratification of the treaty and the publics initial skepticism. Beginning with Russias colonial presence and the challenges it faced, the book progresses through diplomatic negotiations and shifts to the American political climate following the Civil War.</p><p>By examining economic motivations, geopolitical strategies, and political debates, the book provides an interdisciplinary perspective on this historical event, offering lessons about international relations, economic interests in foreign policy, and the long-term consequences of strategic decisions.</p>...7064135Alaskan Purchase127127https://www.gandhi.com.mx/alaskan-purchase-9788235253873/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/7030538/image.jpg?v=638793016272300000InStockMXN99999DIEbook2025Inglés
