内容説明・目次
内容説明
'An attractively written, cogently argued study that merits a prominent place on the bookshelves of Anglo-American and Civil War scholars' - "Journal of American History". 'Jones offers a fresh revision ...on why England failed to intervene in the American fratricidal struggle...[His] book combines a delightful writing style with excellent bibliography and footnotes. It is based on solid research, primarily in original sources. It is a work that will serve well both the scholar and the general reader' - "American Historical Review". 'Thought-provoking ...Jones does a laudable job of presenting both the British arguments for and against intervention and the foundations of the crisis in the relationship between [Great Britain and the United States]' - "Library Journal". 'A model diplomatic history' - "Choice".The Lincoln administration feared that Great Britain would officially recognize the Confederacy during the Civil War, thereby granting legitimacy to secession and undermining the U.S. Constitution. What did happen, and why, is brilliantly described by Howard Jones in "Union in Peril: The Crisis over British Intervention in the Civil War".
Howard Jones, University Research Professor in history at the University of Alabama, is the author of numerous books, including "To the Webster-Ashburton Treaty: A Study in Anglo-American Relations, 1783-1843" and "Course of American Diplomacy: From the Revolution to the Present".
