Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Russo American Relations 1815' offers a scholarly examination of the critical diplomatic ties between the United States and the Russian Empire during a pivotal era in global history. Author Benjamin Platt Thomas provides an in-depth analysis of the geopolitical landscape following the conclusion of the Napoleonic Wars and the War of 1812. The work explores the complex motivations of Tsar Alexander I and the evolving foreign policy objectives of the young American republic as they navigated their shared and conflicting interests on the world stage.This study delves into significant historical milestones, including the mediation efforts surrounding the Treaty of Ghent and the emerging tensions regarding territorial claims in the Pacific Northwest. By examining official correspondence and state papers, Thomas illustrates how these two vastly different nations managed their interactions during the post-Napoleonic transition. The narrative emphasizes the importance of 1815 as a foundational year for modern diplomacy, setting the stage for over a century of complex international engagement.

OCLC 421189 LCCN 52006425 LC E457 .T427 1952 Dewey 973.7092 ; ISBN 9781566193603, 1566193605 ; black cloth in color pictorial dustjacket ; SIGNED presentation by author Ben Thomas, on front endpaper ; Long considered a classic, Benjamin P. Thomas's Abraham Lincoln: A Biography takes an incisive look at one of American history's greatest figures. Originally published in 1952 to wide acclaim, this eloquent account rises above previously romanticized depictions of the sixteenth president to reveal the real Lincoln: a complex, shrewd, and dynamic individual whose exceptional life has long intrigued the public. Thomas traces the president from his hardscrabble beginnings and early political career, through his years as an Illinois lawyer and his presidency during the Civil War. Although Lincoln is appropriately placed against the backdrop of the dramatic times in which he lived, the author's true focus is on Lincoln the man and his intricate personality. While Thomas pays tribute to Lincoln's many virtues and accomplishments, he is careful not to dramatize a persona already larger than life in the American imagination. Instead he presents a candid and balanced representation that provides compelling insight into Lincoln's true character and the elements that forged him into an extraordinary leader. Thomas portrays Lincoln as a man whose conviction, resourcefulness, and inner strength enabled him to lead the nation through the most violent crossroads in its history. Thomas's direct, readable narrative is concise while losing none of the crucial details of Lincoln's remarkable life. The volume's clarity of style makes it accessible to beginners, but it is complex and nuanced enough to interest longtime Lincoln scholars. After more than half a century, Abraham Lincoln: A Biography is still an essential source for anyone interested in learning more about the many facets of the sixteenth president, and it remains the definitive single-volume work on the life of an American legend.; Contents: The short and simple annals of the poor -- Young man on his own -- Frontier legislator : his love affairs -- Courtship and marriage -- Lawyer-politician -- The gentleman from Illinois -- Echoes of national conflict -- Lincoln re-enters politics -- A political plunge -- Defeated for the senate -- The making of a president -- Peace or a sword -- A war for democracy -- Shadows on the White House -- McClellan in command -- The occasion is piled high with difficulty -- The signs look better -- There are no Lincoln men -- Profile of a president -- To bind up the nation's wounds -- Lincoln literature ; contemporary newspaper review by Carl Sandburg and an ad for the book, laid inVG/VG.
