About this ebook

"This volume is a study of the efforts of the Confederate authorities ... to secure foreign recognition and support. It considers also the forces which controlled the European powers and defeated the attempt to divide the American Union ... It attempts to give a careful and purely historical presentation of the theories, purposes, policies, diplomatic efforts, and difficulties of the Secessionists ... It traces the inner working of the diplomatic machine during the many variations of the military and political situation, closely observes the attitude, motives, and policy of the great nations with whom the Confederate agents sought to negotiate, and throws light upon international questions arising between the United States and foreign powers"--Pref.
