Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Louisiana Purchase: As It Was, and as It Is Some events cannot be fully measured at the time of their occurrence. It requires decades, even centuries, to disclose their full significance. Standing at the primal springs of a stream, one can but imperfectly judge what the stream may become before it shall meet and mingle with the sea. Little did either France or the United States dream, on that eventful last day of April, 1803. of all that lay in the sale by the one, and the purchase by the other, of the vast and unknown territory called "Louisiana." But at the distance of a century one is able to gauge somewhat the event that at one bold business stroke doubled the area of the young republic; and made possible the founding of a dozen great and masterful states. Next to the winning of our national independence, the purchase of Louisiana had perhaps the largest influence in the development of our country.
