Debtor Diplomacy: Finance and American Foreign Relations in the Civil War Era 1837-1873

Debtor Diplomacy: Finance and American Foreign Relations in the Civil War Era 1837-1873 The United States was a debtor nation in the mid-nineteenth century, with half of its debt held overseas. Drawing on the unused archives of London banks and the papers of statesmen on both sides of the Atlantic, this work explores a central theme of mid-nineteenth-century foreign relations and a crucial aspect of the Civil War.
