Inhalt:
The Civil War marked a significant turning point in American history - not only for the United States itself but also for its relations with foreign powers both during and after the conflict. The friendship and foreign policy partnership between President Abraham Lincoln and Secretary of State William Henry Seward shaped those US foreign policies. These unlikely allies, who began as rivals during the 1860 presidential nomination, helped ensure that America remained united and prospered in the aftermath of the nation's consuming war. Joseph A. Fry examines the foreign policy decisions that resulted from this partnership and the legacy of those decisions.
